I came across a computer at a place I used to work that has MapPoint 2000 installed on it and thought I'd share a screenshot, see attached.

It has no Territory functionality, but it has something called Pushpin Explorer that looks interesting. I guess they decided it was redundant with the Legend.

John,

I've done on-site MapPoint training for several different companies over the years. Lately I've been teaching out of the MapPoint for Dummies book. Although we end up spending some time flipping through the pages and aren't as focused as say if we used a tight workbook, the people getting trained get a sense of what's in the book and walk away with a good reference they are not as likely to throw away as a 20 page workbook.

Also, at least half the time training is always (so far at least) working with the company's data, helping them explore the options in MapPoint and different ways to look at the data.. sort of like a workshop. No matter how much I prepare, we always come up with new ideas during the workshop sessions.

Other training materials

The help file tutorials are pretty good and detailed, the sample data directory is installed whenever you install MapPoint.
