Hi all.
If we can please leave the question of Mr. Nazareth's martian parentage (I personally think he was from Jupiter...but hey) and get back to jolly ol' MapPoint?

Code:

FindSpecification fs = new FindSpecification();
fs.DataSourceName = "MapPoint.EU";
fs.EntityTypeNames = new string[]{"PoliceStation"};
try
{
	FindResults results = _findService.Find(fs);
	int i = results.NumberFound;
}

Why does this return 0 in the #found?
Or, to re-phrase my question, how can I find the nearest police station to a point in the UK, without (heaven forfend, to keep in the religious tone...) uploading my own database of police stations (please Goddess no...)

:P

Hi,

You completely right. This forum is about MP.

I cannot find anything like 'findspecification, findservice' in the help. Where did you found that ?

_findService is an instance of FindServiceSoap

FindSpecification is the spec that you pass to Find

Hi,

Thanks for the link. It is all about Mappoint web service. You could get answers here, but I think you will have more luck if you repost the question in the mappoint web service forum also on this server.: http://www.mp2kmag.com/mappoint/disc...forum.asp?f=11
