**The ToolBox Cd-Rom was discontinued!
The ToolBox was used as a companion to any Thomas Guide Digital Edition or Rand McNally cd-rom and allowed you to locate hundreds of addresses and to place points automatically, as well as query and analyze your custom map data. The ToolBox contained a full set of computer drawing tools, helping you to control the way your map appears.  With the ToolBox, you were able to send your maps quickly and easily by email.
