>How can I implement into my app the ability to map my customer’s address. As simple as it sounds an activex or ocx that receives the address as parameter and displays the map.

You could buy a package like MS MapPoint and include the ocx, or you can subclass IE and use one of the mapping websites, if your users have internet access.

Here are couple of options on the google solution:

oie = Createobject('internetexplorer.application')
lcurl=[http://maps.google.com/]
oie.navigate(lcurl)
DO WHILE oie.readystate()<>4
ENDDO
DO WHILE oie.document.readystate()<>'complete'
ENDDO
Do While oie.busy
Enddo
oie.Document.forms('q_form').q_d.value='201 Poplar Ave, Memphis, TN'
oie.Document.forms('q_form').q_sub.click()

another method is to pass the address in the querystring
lca=[201+Poplar+Ave,+Memphis,+TN]
lcurl=[http://www.google.com/maps?q=]+lca+[&sa=X&oi=map&ct=title]
oie.navigate(lcurl)
