Greetings colleagues:

 

I need some help w/a project. The scenario:

 

We have a medical assisting program at our school. Students must
complete an externship (on-the-job training). We have a listing of
doctor's offices/hospitals we work with. What we want to do is:

 

1.	Plot all of the doctor's offices/hospitals in Chicago and
surrounding suburbs on an electronic/visual map. 
2.	Enter our students' addresses into database/software to
determine where they live in proximity to these offices/hospitals.
(display visually) 

 

Do you have any suggestions on a type of software? You're suggestions
and comments are appreciated.
