You could use the FindNearby functionality to grab the nearest POI address.. I think that might be your best bet. Did you already pick a development environment? Visual Studio 2008 Visual Basic Express is free to get started.. I'd recommend that. Eric

Do you have the "offline" version of MapPoint i.e. MapPoint 2010 or are you using the web services? Eric

Sorry, MapPoint 2010 doesn't cover Pakistan, you would need some other software. Eric

I'm not sure about a suitable data viewer, but you might want to look at OpenStreetMaps - open source mapping. If your road is missing (for example), you could always add it to the global database! Richard
