I'm pulling my hair out. I've been pouring over forums for a couple of days, tried using the msdn information, but i can't figure this out. I see a lot of code examples for C, but i use VB.

Can someone please post VB code example that will take an existing visual studio dataset/tableadapter with name, address, city, state, zip fields and use it to add pushpins to an embedded map (axmappointcontrol). I see plenty of code on how to import from access, excel, csv, etc... shouldn't i be able to pull data from a dataset from within the app i'm writing?

Thanks in advance for any help.

OK,

I've figured out a quick and dirty method that seems to be working.
I had to place a datagridview in the form.

Here's the code.

Dim objMap As MapPoint.Map
AxMappointControl1.NewMap(MapPoint.GeoMapRegion.ge oMapNorthAmerica)

ForEach dv As DataGridViewRow In mydgvDataGridView.Rows
Dim oLoc As MapPoint.Location
Dim objPP As MapPoint.Pushpin

objMap = AxMappointControl1.ActiveMap
oLoc = objMap.PP(dv.Cells(6).Value.ToString)(1)
objPP = objMap.AddPushpin(oLoc, dv.Cells(3).Value.ToString)
Next dv
