Is there a way to display the standard symbols list on a VB form to allow the user to pick one of these symbols so it can be assigned to a particular push pin.

Thanks in Advance

There is nothing exposed by the MapPoint object model but you can write you own code to provide the same function.

Creat a form, add an image list, listview and a command button. Put the icons in an image list.

Code for the form could look something like this:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
For i = 1 To ListView1.ListItems.Count
If ListView1.ListItems.Item(i).Selected = True Then
symbolNumber = ListView1.ListItems.Item(i)

Unload Me
End If
Next
End Sub


Private Sub Form_Load()

For k = 0 To 255
ListView1.ListItems.Add , , k, k + 1
Next
End Sub

Private Sub ListView1_DblClick()
For i = 1 To ListView1.ListItems.Count
If ListView1.ListItems.Item(i).Selected = True Then
symbolNumber = ListView1.ListItems.Item(i)

Unload Me

End If
Next
Unload Me

End Sub

Here is where you can download the PushPin Icons from Microsoft.
