Hi, I've been asked if it's possible to take a list of postcodes and plot on a map to see where our charity's supporters are. Is this possible with a Drupal module? I'm sorry I don't know what the technical term would be for doing this sort of thing.

Many thanks

Should be doable with the http://drupal.org/project/location and http://drupal.org/project/gmap modules. I haven't tried it, but there's also the http://drupal.org/project/cck_link_to_map module which might be simpler to implement.

Does anybody know of a good tutorial that will show how to use the GMap module/Location module? Having installed them, I can't get passed initializing the "Google Maps API Key". I was able to create the key over on code.google.com/apis/maps/ but it is being rejected with a pop-up that pops-up all over the place.

The Google Maps API Server rejected you request. This could be because the API key used on this site ws registered for a different web site. You can generate a new key for this web site at code.google.com/apis/maps/

I tried it, got another one and still no go.
Tried it several times now!

Just don't seem to get passed "GO" :-/
