Re: Mappoint updates

Not in any approved manner!

Some people have had luck swapping data from later versions of Streets & Trips into earlier versions of MapPoint, so there's a good chance you can do it.

However, Microsoft (and manufacturers of any third party products you use) will refuse to support your kludged version.

Re: Mappoint updates

Also, things will surely break... the zip code boundaries for instance will not match the data and I would expect much crashing. The best way to update would be to get a full version of MapPoint 2009.
