google maps

Hi,
 
I'm a new user to zoho, I'm having some issues working out how to get my addresses to show as a placemarker in googlemaps (my address is formatted as 1 field is the number of the house, 1 field is the address and 1 field is the surburb).
 
I have seen this in the forum - but where do I enter this info?  Do I have to create a new HTML view?  if someone could please walk me thru where I type this code and get it to work, that would be much appreciated.
 
Will this code pull in other fields info?  (such so info that I want to show up in the google map)

  4.     latitude = latandlngXml.executeXPath("/GeocodeResponse/result/geometry/location/lat/text()");
  5.     langitude = latandlngXml.executeXPath("/GeocodeResponse/result/geometry/location/lng/text()");

  6.     latAndLanMap = thisapp.googlemap.getLatitudeAndLangitudeMap(address);
  7.     latitude = latAndLanMap.get("latitude");
  8.     langitude = latAndLanMap.get("langitude");
  9. //CSVMap Data Generating

We would like to request an enhancement in Zoho Sheet that allows users to set the text direction (right-to-left or left-to-right) for individual cells, similar to what is available in Google Sheets.

                                                                                                                          Hi. I discovered a couple of problems with Zoho contact. (1) BUG. Contact is not saved after editing. If you edit an existing contact by putting a bracket in one of the fields you get the message "Contact updated successfully" but nothing is saved. All updates (including the other fields) are lost. Steps to reproduce. Go to an existing contact and change the first name to "Robert (Bob)". (2) In the phone number fields you can only save numeric data (0 to 9). This seems an unneccessary restriction.

We are excited to share that the first phase of the Zoho Mail Android UI revamp is now live. In this update, we have redesigned navigation bar at the bottom to quickly access the Email, Calendar, Contacts, and Settings modules. Also, the

                                                                                                                          It seems that if a contact unsubscribes from a mailing list the only way to email them is to uncheck the email opt-out box first, then re-check after the email has been sent. I've been through a chat with support and they confirmed this. This seems bizarre.
                                                                                                                        • Email Opt Out Question

                                                                                                                          Has the problem where if a customer is emailed opt out prevents you sending standard emails? For me this feature is simply to stop any email marketing and should not block people from receiving emails via Zoho mobile, which makes no sense.

The FAQ reads: "Tracking the landed cost helps determine the overall cost incurred in procuring the product. This, in turn, helps you to decide the
