Hi Wilfried,

I'm new to MapPoint, so please excuse me if I mangle the references. I'm trying to determine the smoothest development path, whether it makes the most sense to embed a MapPoint component into a form, described in previous post, or to just reference the application through the object model (I beleive is the correct term).

I want to build an application to make use of all the MapPoint capacity, but I want complete control of how the user interacts with it.

As for my background, I am a software architect, 17 years experience building systems, BS CMPS, 3 years using C# and .NET framework, blah, blah, blah.
