VB .NET and mappoint 2004

Hi to all.

I'm a newbye in mappoint and a medium programmer in vb. I want to make a small application in vb and mappoint for GPS tracking purposes.

I want to know if somebody make this possible because I search this forum for concrete answers and I didn't find one.

Anyway…I will receive in a mysql database some lat. and long values and with that I will make the application working. This is at least the first step in my app.

Or is somebody have a tiny little demo code (only net because I founded for vb6 but I have only vb.net) to see how is ActiveX working?

Thanks a lot.

Hi .

I made my mappoint integration control in vb workspace, and now I want if anybody knows ...something simple..... I guess.

I have this two textboxes for lat and long and a button. After I insert the lat and long values and I press the button, on the map to have a small "bullet" in center of the map, and to have zoom on it.

any ideeas ??

thanks.

Nobody knows how to make this ?

I really need that , and can't find it anyware.

I have this text file with gps data ( ex: 44.25115 , 28.54817) and I need to put the waypoint to the map from this values.

Will be one ore more waypoints.

Thanks a lot

Here is something to try.

Try
Dim omap As MapPoint.Map
Dim oloc As MapPoint.Location
Dim opin As MapPoint.Pushpin
omap = AxMappointControl1.ActiveMap
oloc = omap.GetLocation(44.25115, 28.54817, 250)
opin = omap.AddPushpin(oloc, "Pushpin1")
opin.BalloonState = MapPoint.GeoBalloonState.geoDisplayBalloon
opin.Location.GoTo()

Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

I have a question though. In my app. is a better solution to use waypoints, not pushpins. Or if I use pushpins it is possible to make the pushpins colored in different ways or the labels? And of course all the pushpins to be fixed. No drag and drop.

Thanks
