Form1 Code
------------------------------------------------------------
Option Explicit

Private objMap As MapPointCtl.Map

Private Sub Form_Load()
Form1.MappointControl1.Object.NewMap geoMapNorthAmerica
Set objMap = Form1.MappointControl1.Object.ActiveMap
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
objMap.Saved = True
Set objMap = Nothing
End Sub

Private Sub Command1_Click()
PrintTurnByTurnRoute
End Sub

Sub PrintTurnByTurnRoute()
Dim objRoute As MapPointCtl.Route

'Set up the application
Set objRoute = objMap.ActiveRoute

'Create a route
objRoute.Waypoints.Add objMap.FindResults("Seattle, WA").Item(1)
objRoute.Waypoints.Add objMap.FindResults("Spokane, WA").Item(1)
objRoute.Calculate

'Print 2 draft copies of the route turn-by-turn with an Overview Map
objMap.PrintOut , "Turn-by-turn route", 2, _
geoPrintTurnByTurn, geoPrintQualityDraft, geoPrintLandscape, _
True, False, True, False
Set objRoute = Nothing
End Sub

Thanks MR Matthis

problem solved. But please, explain to me one thik

Why you wrote

Set objMap = Form1.MappointControl1.Object.ActiveMap

and not
Set objMap = Form1.MappointControl1.ActiveMap

Also VB cant show me any suggestion after Object.

Thanks
