OK, I fixed it. It didn’t work because I have x64 CPU and JET is absolute and works only for 32-bit so xls files can’t be imported.

To fix: Use coreflags utility to set the program to work in 32-bit compatiblity.

run: corflags kmlgeocode.exe /32bit+

Works on my Windows 7 system without issue; you might try contacting the program author.

Doesn’t work on W7 even with sample data :(

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Here is a new online map for ya made with batchgeo… http://landsurveyorsunited.com/page/new-lsu-member-map
this map has almost 1000 land surveyors all over the globe based on level of experience
user contributions on LSU are up 93% I am hoping that the software you provided above (thank you) will render a map that lays out a little faster…

There are a bunch of other free geocoding tools available as well; check the geocoding category on this blog for more info.

Thanks to Dr. Ralston at the University of Tennessee Dept of Geography for these tools!… they came in extremely handy when I needed geocoded addresses for a point pattern ananlysis which is part of my thesis project.
