Hi,

You have 2 instance of MapPoint running (please check in task manager). One because you drop the component on a form and a second one you create yourself.

The problem is that you assign the Activemap from the one to the active map of the other. So what you see is the map from the other application.

So that is wy commenting out the line will let you see the right changes. You can as well remove the component and then check task manager there will be only one instance of MapPoint running.

However I talk a lot because that does not solve the problem wy it is not saved. I will try to try it myself later today if I find some spare time.
