Hello everyone. I am trying to import a CSV file and display it as a DataMap. The code is shown below

Dim objApp As MappointControl
Dim oDD As MapPoint.DataSets
Dim oDS As MapPoint.DataSet
Dim DM As MapPoint.DataMap
szConn = "C:\testfile.csv"

Set oDD = objApp.ActiveMap.DataSets
Set oDS = oDD.ImportData(szConn, , _
geoCountryDefault, _
geoDelimiterComma, _
geoImportFirstRowIsHeadings)


Set DM = oDS.DisplayDataMap(geoDataMapTypeShadedArea)

I get RTE 91 Object Variable or With Block not set. Its objecting to the line:
Set oDD = objApp.ActiveMap.DataSets

I have played around with this to no avail. I'm sure it is something simple but it has escaped me so far and I would appreciate any suggestions.

Are you setting objApp equal to the MapPoint control you are trying to reference before trying to Set oDD = objApp.ActiveMap.Datasets?

I'm slowly making sense of this. I used this code with a csv file with the following fields Street Address, State/Province, City, Country. The file has 4 Canadian Address' and 1 US Address

Dim objMap As MapPointCtl.Map
Dim objdataset As MapPointCtl.DataSet
Dim objdatamap As MapPointCtl.DataMap
Set objMap = MPC.NewMap(geoMapNorthAmerica)
Set objMap = MPC.ActiveMap
Set objdataset = objMap.DataSets.ImportData("c:\test.csv", , geoCountryCanada, geoDelimiterComma)
Set objdatamap = objdataset.DisplayDataMap(geoDataMapTypeShadedArea )

Results:

1.This plots all 4 Canadian Address by Province fine, but doesn't plot the US address. If I use geoCountryUnitedStates or geoCountryMultiCountry - I get the message Incorrect parameter and nothing plots.

2. If I use (geoDataMapTypeShadedArea,, geoshowbyCountry) the Address for both Canada and the US plot properly by Country

3. If I use (geoDataMapTypeShadedArea,, geoshowbyCity), I get the messageError 4073 Cannot map data because the selected geography type is invalid

Any insight into this? Also how do I get the legend and Map title to appear. Any help would be appreciated.
