How do I calculate a route distance without displaying route
I need to determine how to calculate the distance in Miles from two points BUT I do not want to display the Route or place it on the map just get the distance. Currently I get the distance and can display it but the route shows on the map.

'Add route stops and calculate the route

Set objRoute = objMap.ActiveRoute
objRoute.Waypoints.Add CMD
objRoute.Waypoints.Add objLocCrimes(MaxDistanceIndex)
objRoute.Calculate

MsgBox CStr(objRoute.Distance)



Is this possible to get the distance without displaying route in Mappoint Control? (BTW I need the route distance not the direct distance so I don't believe I can use the distance function)

try putting objroute.clear after you calculate the distance

Hows about post the results to a file and set the following in your program
objApp.Visible = False

The cleanest way and with less complications that I have found is by having a hidden MP control in my form and using the code you posted here on that control. That way, you will get the results you want and the map still won't show up on the form. It doesn't take too much overhead since you are not doing heavy calculations, just determining route distance from A to B.
