In looking at both, I think I prefer City Maps 2GO, though it isn't free (which is fine). &nbsp;I haven't checked yet, but being able to plan my routes on the computer would be helpful for my aging eyes :). &nbsp;Thanks for your help.

I was using Microsoft Streets &amp;&nbsp;Trips for many years, and now that it's defunct I need a standalone software program that I can use for creating routes on maps to plan trips, etc. &nbsp;MS Streets &amp;&nbsp;Trips was excellent for that, and I don't see how Google Maps or Bing can let me place &quot;pins&quot; (or waypoints) on a street map and have the map plan the best route with details such as distance, time, etc. &nbsp;Do you know of a replacement program?<br />

Standalone Mapping Program

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.
