Terry,
How much of the image do you want to be in focus? Which parts of the image do you want to be in focus? From your comment about using f/12, it suggests you want all of the scene to be in focus. If so, pick a focus point that is about 1/3 of the way into the scene. With a lens as wide as the 10-20, there will be a huge Depth of Field at f/12, so as long as you're not focused on something very close, such as the safety rail on the bridge over the highway, then it will pretty much be guaranteed to be all in focus at this aperture.
Experiment, pick different focal points, try different settings, analyse the pictures using the preview screen on the back. Learn what's right for you.
