This site has a number of static icon images sets which can be imported into MapPoint..

Icon Image Sets - Google Mapki

The icons are all in png format so there are a number of steps to convert to MapPoint, but with a little automation it is fairly quick.

Note that I used HyperSnap - it is a very versatile image capture and processing utility I've always liked.

It has a number of command-line options which allow you to control it's behavior and use it from batch scripts.

First download and unzip a set into a directory.

Create list of the files using the dir command "dir /b > list.txt".

e.g.
blank.png
marker.png
marker0.png
...

Paste this list into Excel and use a formula like this to construct the batch file commands which call HyperSnap.

=CHAR(34)&"C:\Program Files\HyperSnap 6\hprsnap6.exe" & CHAR(34) & " -open:"&A1&".png -save:bmp "&A1&".bmp"

The resulting batch file should look something like this:

"C:\Program Files\HyperSnap 6\hprsnap6.exe" -open:blank.png -save:bmp blank.bmp
"C:\Program Files\HyperSnap 6\hprsnap6.exe" -open:marker.png -save:bmp marker.bmp
"C:\Program Files\HyperSnap 6\hprsnap6.exe" -open:marker0.png -save:bmp marker0.bmp
...
pause

Then these need to be importing into MapPoint.. if there were a lot or I was doing this regularly, I would write a little program in Excel VBA which would import all of them, but I was lazy and just clicked 112 times to import them all manually.. doh!

See example attached, this is:

"Numbered Markers, 0 to 99
by Prime Suspect. 112 markers total (single and double-digits for 0-9, plus default and blank markers)."

I also attached a few of the markers so you can see what they look like.. 1, 2, 99.

hope someone finds this useful! Let me know if you have any suggestions.

I thought about this later --
Load Custom Symbols

Would have saved me a lot of clicking!

It loads custom symbols in batch.

Have a lot of custom symbols to add? This small utility will allow you to add custom symbols to MapPoint in "batch mode"
