We present preliminary results of an analysis of data collected with the Solar Maximum Mission Gamma-Ray Spectrometer (GRS) in an effort to provide limits on the spatial distribution of Galactic 26Al radiation. This analysis utilizes a new technique for applying the GRS data to extra-solar observations. Here we describe this technique and present data collected using four passages of the Galactic center region through the GRS field-of-view. The data are compared with three models: one representing a point source at the Galactic Center; one a distribution following that of Galactic CO; and a third which follows the distribution of novae in the Galaxy. Preliminary analysis indicates that the data are qualitatively in better agreement with the diffuse models.
