I have a relatively basic access 2007 database. What I want to be able to do is have a little button next to the customer's address field in my access form that says 'click here to find on map' - similar to what I have in my Outlook contact form. I have streets and trips 2008, but it doesn't seem to let me do that. Will MapPoint allow me to do that? I am willing to spend the $300 for it - but I don't want to waste the money if it isn't going to do what I want it to do.

thanks for any input you can provide.

Hi,

Yes you can simple do this by means of some custom programming in VBA. You can mark the address or point on the map and zoom in to it.

.... and there's some very useful vba code here for what you want to do
