Hi, I am trying to use web form to open mappoint, do you know if this is possible? I get this error: Object reference not set to an instace of an object. Have tried different things but same result.
dim oApp as MapPoint.Application
dim objMap as MapPoint.Map
oApp.left=10
oApp.Quit()
oApp=Nothing
It looks like could not find oApp objects.

In theory the MapPoint control can be used in a web page as an ActiveX control. However, every user (viewer) of the page will need a full version of MapPoint installing on their machine - hence it is rarely practical. (restricted Intranets being the most obvious exception because MapPoint can be installed on every machine)
