| Re: How to close MapPoint applications correctly?
Hi, I just did try your demo application using Delphi 7. Indeed you have 2 MapPoint instances so that's the reason of view. However I have no idea wy the saveAs not works on the mappoint class. I just tryed on an older application using a own made component for MapPoint (using Delphi 5) and the SaveAs do not work there also. Do you really need the SaveAs ? Maybe it is better to save lat/long/alt of the map, including all pushpins etc and reload at next run ? Just a tought as I'm a little out of idea at the moment

| Re: How to close MapPoint applications correctly?
Hi Wilfried, thanks for your replies. You're right, I've seen in Task Manager two instances of Mappoint.exe. To your last reply: I need SaveAs, because I want to give a .ptm file to other people that they can open it in their mappoint, so I would be glad if there was a solution to this problem. But I have read in the MapPoint Help that the SaveAs isn't availible for embedded Maps and the MapPoint control. (From the German help: "Nicht verfügbar für eingebettete Karten und das MapPoint-Steuerelement."). Does that indicate my problem? Do I have an embedded map? Best wishes Dietmar |

Hi, Aha that explains wy it does not work. Yes you have an embedded map because you embed it into an ole container. But as always there are workarounds. I have not the time to try this at the moment (sorry for that), but I think it is simple: When you want to use the saveAs then you open a second MP instance (like you do now, eg with the component). Then put all in there like pushpins, zoom level etc and save it. then close it. Does this short explanation makee sence ? I mean use the embedded map for view in your application, and use the second instance for the saveAs. Of course you will consume some more RAM.
