Create Object MS MapPoint

[Mike]

Hello,

I frequently create ad hoc addresses within Excel with the intention of
mapping these location within MS MapPoint.

I figured I could automate this is I use the Create Object technique for
MapPoint. Has anyone ever done this before?

Once the object has been created, I want to pass a selected range of
addresses to the MapPoint object for plotting.

Thanks for the help.

Mike

this an example of starting map point at a location. you have to look at
mappoint object model to get it to do what you want.

Set mapp = CreateObject("MapPoint.Application")
mapp.WindowState = 0
Set mmap = mapp.ActiveMap
mmap.FindAddressResults("1 Main st", "Hometown", , "CA",
"91111").Item(1).Goto
mapp.Visible = True
