ArcGIS Customizations

1. Open ArcMap
2. Customize the Toolbar (Tools > Customize…)
3. Click the Commands tab
4. Click the Add from file… button
5. Browse to the location where you saved this DLL, select the DLL, and click OK
6. Click OK on the resulting dialog box
7. A command called Geocode Orem Addresses… will be placed in the Geocoding category
8. Drag and drop the command to any toolbar you want
9. You can click the Close button and skip the rest of these instructions, or continue following along to enable geocoding entire tables
10. Click the Toolbars tab
11. Check on the Context Menus checkbox
12. Drop down the Context Menus button and expand the Table submenu
13. Click the Commands button in the Customize dialog box
14. Drag and drop the command to a logical place in the Table submenu
15. Close the Customize dialog box

1. Click the Orem City Geocoder button. Its icon is an outline of Orem city with a grey post sign in the middle of it.
2. Enter an address any logical way, but leave out the city, state, and zip. Some examples of geocodable addresses are:
   • 414 N 800 E
   • 414 north 800 E.
   • 800 EAST 414 North
   • 359 w univ
   • 1300 S 359 WEst
   • 869 w 398 S
3. Optionally enter an offset for the point (default is 0 feet)
4. As the dialog box indicates, you can keep the current extent and place the graphic, or have the map moved for you. When you have the map moved for you, you have the option of placing a graphic on the map. The graphic is a solid red square. (It would be pointless for the map not to move and not to place a graphic).

1. If it's not already, add a table to your map with the Add Data command. The table will not show up in the Display tab of the Table of Contents, but the Source tab instead.
2. Right-click the table and choose Geocode Orem Addresses...
3. A Dialog box appears. You can cancel it if you don't really want to geocode addresses.
4. Drop down the list of fields to choose a field to geocode. Obviously, addresses can't be spread across multiple fields.
5. Optionally, click the checkbox to include the X and Y values of the resulting point in the new shapefile. The new shapefile will automatically have a Match field and a Side field. The Side field can be misleading, since it assumes the first number in the address is the house and the second word is the prefix direction.
6. Optionally enter an offset for the point (default is 0 feet)
7. Click the folder button to specify an output folder and name for the shapefile. Only then will the OK button be enabled.
8. Geocoding progress will be updated every 25 rows.

1. Unzip the files to a location on your hard drive, preferably a new folder specifically for this utility
2. Close any ArcGIS programs that are running
3. Run the Install.bat program
4. Open ArcCatalog
5. Verify that ArcCatalog can list text files
1. Click Tools > Options
2. In the bottom window, verify that Text Files is checked
3. Optionally, you can select Text Files and click the Properties... button. This allows you select which file extensions are text files, but you only have four hard-coded extensions to choose from.

1. Browse to a text file in ArcCatalog and select it in the tree
2. Click the Preview tab
3. To change the Font used in the Preview tab:
1. Close ArcCatalog
2. Open Notepad
3. Click Format > Font and change the Font there
4. Optionally, click Format > Word Wrap. The text preview tab will only wrap text if notepad is set to do the same thing.
