Hallo Guys,
I have a problem.
I want to use the WinForm-Control of Mappoint 2006 for an intranet application.
I called with Microsoft to check the licensing and its ok. The intranet apllication will just use 5 users. And I will buy 5 licenses.

I heared that is possible but I cant find a sample or something.

Could you help me, please?!

Thx a lot!

Maybe this will help you started: Automating Microsoft MapPoint (http://www.ericphelps.com/mappoint/index.html)

Thanks!

This is a good information and very valuable.

But it is a picture.
Is it possible to use the "zoom-functionality"?
Have anyone a solution for this additional problem?

Thank a lot for your infos.

MapPoint desktop, although not designed to work with asp.net, will work fine. I was never able to use the controls directly in asp.net code behind.....the threading architectures are not compatible. But if you create a seperate desktop application and use the mapPoint object model, it will work very well. You will need to use tcp/ip (or even file events) to interface with your asp.net app.

Zooming is supported:

dim oMap as MapPoint.map
aLoc = oMap.GetLocation(lat, lon, zoom)
