John,

Take a look at "Enhancing your application with GIS mapping technology" at
http://www.augsd.org/sampleapps/AUGSD_GIS.zip.  Mike Dwyer gave this
presentation to the Access Users Group of San Diego last June. It may answer
some of your questions.  The examples Mike gave used Map Point.

Subject: [AccessD] Mappoint and Access


Does anyone have any experience automating mappoint using Access.  I have a
client that wants to "staff contracts", and in order to do that they want to
visualize distances between the person's home address and the work address.
They also want to do things like ask mappoint to calculate distance / drive
time between a work address and a set of people home addresses, then hand
back to Access the data so that Access can display the data in a report
sorted on drive time / distance.

Stuff like that.

Does anyone have code that does this kind of stuff, or know of a web site or
user's group that I could go look at to start boning up on this stuff?
