Mappoint Add In

I'm trying to create a MapPoint add in as a learning example. I added a CommandBar as per the directions, though when I read about the control scanner it says that Mappoint doesn't have a CommandBar collection.

So, is there an alternative method? The point is the Command bar doesn't show up when I start Mappoint, it shows up in the list of Com Addins but doesn't show anything.

Hi Julia,

MapPoint realy doesn't contain a command bar collection. You can add your controls in the menu Tool only.

Ok, not to sound dense, but I had a hard time finding an example of that. Can you point me to one, please.

Thanks,
Julia

Hi Julia,

Unfortunately, our MapPoint CD went into pieces in cd-drive. We have ordered another copy of MapPoint but it will be available by the end of the week.

Wouldn't it be like adding a menu Tool in the other office apps?

No, Map Point requires a special public method of the implemented COM interface. We will try to prepare for you a sample, but we will not be able to check it.

It would figure I'd want to do something that isn't normal!

Don't fret, it's just the way my day is going.

Thanks for the help,
Julia
