Getting Lat and long area from user's selection

I am using the mappoint ActiveX control in a VB app. I want to get a range of lat and long based on what area the user selects.

I can get the objMap.SelectedArea and I can check for pushpins, select pushpins etc but I can't get the lat and long of the selected area.

I can get the top, left, width, height of the selected area in relation to the active map but that is a far cry from getting the lat/long.

Does anyone know of a calculation I can use?

Thanks
