I presume approach had vectored you onto the localizer previously or you
would not be able to identify ROYCE.


The position was given as four miles southwest of ROYCE.



The instruction to cross ROYCE at or above two-thousand is an IFR
restriction with which you must comply because the visual approach isn't
authorized until passing ROYCE.


The visual approach is authorized the instant it's issued.
