Visual Basic and Google Maps
I am interested in possibly using Google with my Visual Basic 2005 application. I am currently using MapPoint 2010. I would like to evaluate using Google Maps.
I am less concerned with the visual aspects of Google Maos, and more interested in routing, directions, and mileage.
Thanks,
-Michael

That was my impression too. Not so much actually integration as much as browser automation. I am using MapPoint through automation. I have found some discrepencies , and then I read something that said that the Google Maps API was so much better. I think I am going forward with MapPoint, discrepencies and all...
Thanks Again,
