For example, I have the location Amesbury in Wiltshire. In GenoPro, I have this set as Place Name: Amesbury Place Category: Town City: Amesbury County: Wiltshire Country: England but Google maps shows me some location in the USA. If I change the city to Salisbury, it then points to Salisbury, UK Setting the lat/long does not correct the problem. Similarly, changing the country to UK has no effect. Neither do postcodes have any effect This problem occurs for many places. Thanks in advance for your help. PS Otherwise, the report generator is very impressive.
