I've got a really weird problem.

I am using the Activex control on an Access form and every now and again the control will fail with the message:

"Mappoint failed to load. The cause of the error is unknown"

...and that's it...

Restarting Access doesn't work, even restarting the PC doesn't help.

Somtimes it will work, but most of the time I get the message...

any ideas?

Tom - check out this article. http://www.mp2kmag.com/articles.asp?ArticleID=71 -- it contains a link to download a sample app. If the sample app doen't work for you then try reinstalling mappoint. If it works without the problem then compare it to your app and see what the difference is.

Good luck.
