>>Anyone used mapx ocx with VFP? I'm trying to use it to plot some datapoints for things like crime analysis, etc. but the sample code is written in VB and doesn't flow very well.
>Not used mapx. Try also mapobjects from ESRI (
www.esri.com). I'm using its evaluation version since Michelle Cox told there was such a control (would set it as standart for our institute but national distributor shocked me with the prize - 4-7 times expensive than US market depending on version).
>Also there the sample codes are in VB, Delphi and C++. VFP samples are simply empty. But especially the Delphi code is understandable and easy to convert to VFP.

Yeah, I'm trying the mapx sample ocx that can be downloaded from them at
www.mapx.com. It's very pricey too, and they have no VFP support. Maybe I can find someone who does Delphi and get them to give me some sample code.
