Have tried multiple ways can't get Georgia counties to map in Georgia (USA).
ShelliG_N Foget about data typing as Geography. This mapping function is far from reliable and you need to play around a bit with columns headers, and names of the areas you want.
Attached you'll find your own file a better map, though it might still not be 100% correct.
ShelliG_N I suspect that the missing counties are ones that also exist in other states, or even other places in the world. Perhaps not all, but as said, this tool is far from reliable and your "problem" is discussed pretty often in this forum and mostly encountered outside the US. It's all about testing your way around. Sometimes with geography data types but mostly not. Just changing the column header sometimes helps. Quite unpredictable. Good luck!
Riny_van_Eekelen yes, the last three worked when I added: ", Georgia, United States" - strangely it broke everything when I added that to all the counties - but I got what I need now and really appreciate the help!
