Access some hidden features in MapPoint2002 ActiveX control

Hi,

An example project under the link below shows a technique (using
WinAPI) to access MapPoint2002 functionality (like 'Location Sensor' or
'Measure Distance' from 'Tools' menu), which is not readily available in
the ActiveX control.

Download:

The code is not well documented and does not pretend to be bug-free.
But, it is not too complex to understand.

Ones who are interested in the technique employed to extend the MapPoint ActiveX
functionality, read the article here: http://www.mp2kmag.com/articles.asp?ArticleID=88

I appreciate responses, fixes as well as reports about new functionality
been accessed and not present in the posted example.

Thank you,

Sergiy Pavlov
