Hi,
I entered all my contacts in Outlook 2003.
If I doubleclick on a contact, I get a little window
with all its information. In the toolbar there's a little
icon (yellow streetsign) which opens internet explorer
and the routeplanner of msn.com. This works fine
for the United Stated, but needs some extra inputs
for European locations. The map that is used by
msn.com seems to be based on MS Autoroute.
I own MS Autoroute 2004 myself and I would like
it, if I would be able to use this program to look up
a location of an Outlook-contact.
If I use customize toolbar in Outlook, it is possible to
change the hyperlink of the streetsign icon.
It seems to me that it should be possible to replace
it by C:\program file's\msautoroute\autoroute.exe or
something like that. But it would be even better if it
adds the location you want to look up right away...
Is it possible to add a string behind autoroute.exe
which incorporates reference to the country, city
and street and or postal code fields?
(Something like also happens with other shortcuts
e.g. in games -multiplay, or -highres?)
I noticed an import function in Autoroute, where you
can import folders of your contacts. But I want it to
work the other way around, like explained above.
I hope someone has an idea how to do it....
Thanks for any help!
Michael
