| Selecting Shape Based on Name Dim objShape As MapPoint.Shape Dim strName As String strName = "NA123456" objShape = objMap.Shapes.Item(strName) Basically something like that, however everytime I run it I get the rather irratating Mappoint has encountered a problem and needs to close window. If I do objShape = objMap.Shapes.Item(1) It works fine The help files clearly state that you can select a shape based on its name, and all the shapes have been named properly. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem or has any ideas as to what i'm doing wrong         |

Not all shapes have a name property (like a geoline for example). Here is a basic sample that might help. Create a shape (Rectangle,Oval or Circle) and name it "MyShape" Code: Dim objshape As MapPoint.Shape
For Each objshape In MappointControl1.ActiveMap.Shapes
Select Case objshape.Type
Case 1 ' An AutoShapeType (Rectangle,Oval or Circle)
If objshape.Name = "MyShape" Then
MsgBox "Do Something"
End If
End Select
Next
