Removing an address locator from an ArcMap document

Address locators are managed in the Address Locator Manager dialog box in ArcMap. The following steps describe how to remove an address locator from the map document using the Address Locator Manager dialog box.

Steps:

1. Open the Address Locator Manager dialog box. You can accomplish this by performing one of the following two options:
   • In ArcMap, click the File menu and click Add Data > Geocoding > Address Locator Manager.
   • Click the Manage Address Locators drop-down box (the first drop-down box) in the Geocoding toolbar and click <Manage Address Locators>.
2. In the Address Locator Manager dialog box, click the address locator you want to remove from the ArcMap document and click the Remove button.
3. Click Close.

Note:

Removing an address locator from an ArcMap document does not permanently delete the address locator; it can still be used in other ArcMap documents or independently in ArcCatalog or with geocoding and geoprocessing tools to geocode addresses.
