>Hi! Well I've gone some way to automating mappoint from Visual foxpro,
>taking some address from my database, finding their location on a map, then mappoint finding the shortest route.

>I now need to take this a great deal further, IE allow the user to select an area of the map, selecting only some of the addresses on the map, and planning that route for the customers selected. Then removing the selected customers from the map, and passing them back to Foxpro.

>Clearly, there would have to be some sort of reading of the mappoint files directly for this? I thought this was a bit ambitious (i've learn't never to say impossible with computers), but apparently a software company in America have written a program in VFP which does this, so I no its possible.
