Hello I am writing a VC++ MFC dialog based app which requires Microsoft MapPoint embedding in it. To do this I'm using MS VC++ .NET 2003 and MapPoint Europe 2006 to do this but am having problems as when I select "Insert ActiveX Control" no MapPoint control appears in the list of options. I have tried manually registering mappointcontro...
I'm having some problems integrating MS MapPoint 2009 into my WinForms .Net 2.0 application in C#. I've added the ActiveX MapPoint control onto a form and have no problems getting it to display a maps and locations; my concern is the time it takes to load a map once it is created. The tests on my development machine have shown the av...
Hello I'm writing a MFC app that uses the MS Mappoint OCX. I need to display the locations of people and vehicles on the map and the best of doing this appears to be with Pushpin objects.

My application requires an on-drive map as there will be no internet access during operation. I've kind of settled on using MapPoint 2009, but the map 'style' really clashes with my overall UI look and feel. I'm wondering if there's some way to custom draw everything on the map (roads, labels, etc.)? It's crossed my mind that perhaps th...
I have MapPoint 2009 installed and added a reference to the "Microsoft MapPoint 16.0 Object Library (North America)" COM component to my C# project.

I have an old legacy VB6 app that I support, which uses the MapPointControl.ocx. Customers are saying it doesnt work with Mappoint 2009. Having Googled, it would appear the European addition of Mappoint shipped with a bad OCX file on it. Apparently this has now been sorted on the latest CDs, but that doesnt help my customers who are s...

The problem is that if I try to get another GlobeControl later the globeControl.Host object of the newly constructed GlobeControl has almost all of its members ...
Does anyone know where I can find a good mapping tool to use in connection with Access data? Similiar to Mappoint but not even as detailed/in-depth. Anything that would work with Access or Excel would be really what I need. Thanks! ...

The application originally used MapPoint 2004, then 2006, and now we're upgrading to 2010. Within my development environment (VS2008/.NET 2.0 for the project) the application runs fine. Once I create an installer and insta...
