    It's fantastic : with that we could generate Do-to list with optimization of the travel in the Service Mgt !

    This seems to work with 2006 as well (the 2004 automation anyways)! This is without even changing the object library automation variables over to the new ones.

    I love it when a plan comes together.

    HI there.
    I imported your object however I get an automation error when I access the Map Menu Items added.
    "Could not create an instance of the OLE control or Automation server".
    I tried to download the MapPoint 2004 Trial software and was not sucessfull because that is not available any longer and I guess I have to order the 2006 Trial software.
    Does anyone have any idea how to get this to work ??

    THanks

    Great work!!!!!

    I see that someone else asked this question, but I don't see the answer.

    Is there a method to retreive the miles and time estimate from Mappoint?

    I need the mileage and estimated drive time for Service Management quoting.

    It should be possible to get the distance back from MapPoint.

    You can try to add the following line in Codeunit 50000 or 50001 after autMapPointRoute.Calculate: 
    MESSAGE('The route distance is: ' + FORMAT(autMapPointRoute.Distance));
    I have not tested it, but found this Distance-property in a MapPoint newsgroup.

    This is absolutely GREAT! Your suggestion for distance worked with no changes.

    This is just what I've been looking for! Brilliant!

    I have one question, would it be possible to open an existing mappoint database with the "Show Address On Map" function?

    Many Thanks

    I did it by changing the default MapPoint .ptt file
