To display well locations on a map, add them as a post map. You will need a data file with at least the XY coordinates of each well.
  1. Create your map that you want to add the well locations to.
  2. Go to Map | Add | Post Map.
  3. Select the data file with the well locations and click Open. The post layer is added to the map.
  4. Select Post in the Object Manager and in the Property Manager edit any of the post layer properties (including selecting different XY columns, adding labels, changing the symbol shape, etc).
