Here's a French to English translation using Babelfish ( http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr )

"hello, is what somebody has an idea on the type of the algorithm used to optimize a course in mappoint. until A which point it is effective this algorithm. is what mappoint is able to generate several courses on the same chart. Thank you."

I can answer the last question: A route in MapPoint can include several stops, but there can only be one Start and End. Only a single route can be shown at a time. However, Chip Pearson submitted a clever routine some months ago showing how to depict more than one route on the map at a time: http://www.mp2kmag.com/articles.asp?...ultiple.routes

Happy Mapping!
Eric
