| Selecting text boxes
I am interested in seeing examples of controlling MapPoint through Excel, this promises to be an interesting topic. I was recently had a set of maps that had been created that used text boxes as labels for multiple locations on each map. I wanted to use VB in Excel to select all text boxes on the map and set the border to 1 pt. I'd be curious to see how that is done. Thanks. |

Yes, change the NA in this line to EU Set oApp = CreateObject("MapPoint.Application.NA.11") Or better yet, try ommitting the entire .NA.11 part and just do this Set oApp = CreateObject("MapPoint.Application") hope this helps, Eric

Do you want to post your spreadsheet here as an attachment? I will take a look. What version of Excel and MapPoint do you have (NA or EU) ? Eric
