[AccessD] Any MapPoint programmers out there?

Anyone got any sample code to get me started, I have just installed MapPoint
2004 (60 day evaluation).  All I want to do (using Visual Basic 6.0) is send
two postcodes to MapPoint and have Visual Basic display a message box with
the distance between the two postcodes.

Sample code for this and anything like it will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advance...

I appreciate it.  Mostly it's a matter of discovering how to do all those
things that can be done.

Hi John,

I have no doubt that everything you do in the next month will match what I
have done in 2 years. Nevertheless, if you have any questions, I'll try to
help.
