Google Maps

Bruce,

Do you have anything in the pipeline regarding a Google Maps API ?

I am currently using MS MapPoint, which is a Win32 program - which is also very expensive on a per-seat basis. Would like to be able to plot a set of pushpins on a map representing customer addresses for a service technicians daily schedule.

Check this old thread I started.  I attached an example app that should demonstrate how to do what you are wanting.

I'm sorry.  This one may be better.  Uses Open Street Map (OSM) instead of Google.  OSM is open source (free).

Much appreciated - I will check it out.

Don,

Well, that was easy. I had to change the URL used to retrieve the GeoCoding but that was about it. Your example save me a ton of time figuring this out. Thanks very much for the tip.

The example was from my early testing of mapping.  I still have not perfected it but I'm glad I got you pointed in the right direction.

I forgot about the URL.  Google changed it some time back.
