Finding tiles in the Fallout 2 Mapper

[RGE]

I started up the Fallout 2 Mapper to see if it would be too difficult for me to use, and I suppose that it is. But I could be mistaken. Is there an easier way to find tiles than to click 200+ times on the double arrow buttons? I read something about setting bookmarks, which I suppose would be helpful once the right tiles have been found, but with so many tiles and such a limited search method I doubt that I'm going to bother making even a single map. And I usually make at least a single map before I quit.

Very few of the tiles are labeled, so there really isn't an easier way to go about it. Here is a partial list of the tiles. Note that this is not complete, and I haven't double-checked it, so the exact numbers may be off, but they should be generally correct.

Err, hey.. Where are the tiles that let you make two story buldings? I've established that they are tiles, but I haven't managed to find them yet.

patience, buddy, I consider myself a very impationt person, for example I can't stand fishing unless I get fish after a few throws, but yet I have become one of the most experienced mappers out here(IT'S TRUE!)(ego growing)
Use the numpad plus-key to move forward, less tiresome than the mouse-click, use the numbers(I prefer "0" meself) to go back to start, find the tiles you want, move the cursor to the top of the screen to the pop-up menu bar, go to "tools" then "add bookmark" or something like that, then hit a number key.
It's easy as hell and if you can't do it then you don't deserve to use the mapper and I wish your PC would blow up in your face and spread splinters of shattered glass in your eyes...
