I've added UK Geocoding to the Location Module here: http://drupal.org/node/158101 if that's what's doing the geocoding for you.

Not sure if GMap does its own geocoding in other instances... ?

thanks, all Drupal users benefit this patch

i don't use location module still trying to figure out if i need to use location module as i do not need node posting locations or user locations as -afaik- location module designed handle this.
I just trying to figure out if i can use gmap as cck event content type (gmap cck addons field) to set a map for events not sure i need location module for this - a bit puzzled the scope of the triple modules to get something exactly needed-

thanks

You are most likely using the location module for geocoding, as the gmap native geocoder doesn't have any instances where it kicks in automatically.
