Automatically Zoom to a Point Feature, then Select Features from another layer that the point intersects

I need some help getting started with a workflow that will combine two tasks:

 

1) The user enters an Address. I have this workflow working against my Address Point layer but I want it to automatically zoom to this point. From what I've read on the forum I need to use a buffer activity, get this geometry and then zoom to the buffered geometry. How do you do this?

 

2) I want to use the Address Point to get select the Parcel that it intersects, how do you do that?

  Here's an example in the Code Gallery that might be helpful: https://support.geocortex.com/essentialsGSCCodeGallery?sub-nav=codegall&main-nav=essentials&#!/feedtype=SINGLE_ARTICLE_DETAIL&criteria=BESTANSWERS&id=kA4600000004EX3CAM It also demostrates how to use your address point (schools in the workflow) to query a parcel layer. You don't have to use the buffer if your looking for the specific parcel associated with an address.  Just use the address geometry instead of the buffer geometry to query the parcel layer. Zooming to the address or parcel is done by the "Set Map Extent" activity.  

   

  Hope this helps.
