Mapping from cities or zip codes

[rick altman]

I would like to know if it is possible to create viewable Google Map or Earth data from City/St or Zipcode information, but not street address. I don't need that level of precision and many of the records in our database do not contain street addresses; just cities and zips. I'd be fine with general blobs around geographical areas.

I am using FMPA15 under Windows 10. Is this possible?

It is definitely possible to do what you are looking for. You may need to tweak this a bit. But definitely not too terribly difficult.
