Hi, I'm new here, and just trying to figure out MapPoint 2009.

I'm importing a list of points and using the coordinates to geocode. Each of my points has a name field. I know I can click on the point/pushpin on the map and select "Show name" and the name will show. Is there anyway to turn on the Name lable for all points at once?

I've tried to do this programmatically from Access 2003. I can do it once for a found push pin, but I can't figure out how to loop through the dataset of all pushpins and set the BalloonState for each one. Do I have to loop through the dataset and name each push pin to be able to use the FindPushpin method?

Thanks in advance for the help.

OK, so I figured out one way, although it is kinda slow with 2300 records

field 2 in my record set is the Name field.

Do Until objRS.EOF
sName = objRS.Fields.Item(2)
Set objPin = objApp.ActiveMap.FindPushpin(sName)
objPin.BalloonState = geoDisplayName
objRS.MoveNext
Loop
