Juste follow the instructions
- Launch MapPoint
- Open a saved file or import pushpins (start with a small number of addresses to test)
- launch PinsToFile.Exe
- specify the name of the pushpin set you want to export
- press "Start Export"

To be sure,
- Copy PinsToFile.exe in the same directory as Mappoint
- Create some puspins and save them to test.ptm
- Open test.ptm with Mappoint
- Export some pushpins to an Excel file with a shaded form
- In the Excel file you will see the right name of your PushPin SET
( May be "My Pushpins" is wrong , in French it's "Mes clics-infos" )
So copy the exact name in Excel an paste it in PinsToFile )


Hope it works for you now.

But If you do your own programm you can be sure to have good results.
It's very easy to export Lat/lon programmatically. Just take some time to search in this forum.

Good luck.
Cool
