OK - But - You Need To Know Programming Before Using It
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This SEEMS like a good book with a good tutorial CD. I had to stop before getting into it BECAUSE THE BOOK STATES THAT YOU NEED A BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE "VISUAL BASIC" PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE. I did not see anything in the product description that mentioned that so I was disappointed that I bought it because I do not know that language, and so cannot use the book or CD.

Decent introductory guide to MapPoint
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Although it perhaps doesn't go into the depth that the previous review desired, this book provides a good overall view of what MapPoint can do. Even if you have used MapPoint quite a few times before, you will probably discover new functionality in areas that you have rarely used. Also includes a number of useful tips that you probably won't find yourself. The programming interface to MapPoint is very useful because it allows MapPoint to be extended. Yes, the VB content in this book is limited, and only goes far enough to show you what is possible. Luckily the documentation that Microsoft provides with MapPoint includes a fully documented object model. The book wisely avoids duplicating this reference. For further help with using the VB API or using it in a different language (via COM), I recommend the microsoft.public.mappoint newsgroup or the articles and forums on http://www.mp2kmag.com/ - both of which are listed in the book.
