MapForums

Hi there,
same probleme again.
I included the MapPoint Control 13.0 in
a Visual Studio Project, made a Button
on my Form and did this:

Form myForm = new Form();
AxMappointControl mapPoint = new AxMappointControl();
myForm.Controls.Add(mapPoint);
mapPoint.NewMap(MapPoint.GeoMapRegion.geoMapEurope );
myForm.Show();

On Line mapPoint.NewMap(...) i get System.Windows.Forms.AxHost+InvalidActiveXStateExc eption

if i try this:

Form myForm = new Form();
myForm.Show();
AxMappointControl mapPoint = new AxMappointControl();
myForm.Controls.Add(mapPoint);
mapPoint.NewMap(MapPoint.GeoMapRegion.geoMapEurope );

everything works fine

Where is the probleme?

Hi there, no, i won't write "I got the solution, thanks, bye".

The problem was that the activeX wasn't completly
initialized, in which way ever the show method of the
form called the EndInit() Method of the ActiveX and made
the usage afterwards possible.

Solution: Just call it yourself.
Form myForm = new Form();
AxMappointControl mapPoint = new AxMappointControl();
myForm.Controls.Add(mapPoint);
mapPoint.EndInit(); // <- That's the way
mapPoint.NewMap(MapPoint.GeoMapRegion.geoMapEurope );
myForm.Show();

Sry for my bad and irritating english, i'm german an not quite
used to write or talk in english. Hope this helps some of you.

Give me some hinds if the problem was totally clear and i'm just
dumb ^^
