Sorry for the last subject in my question.

I need your help for solve my problem of streets names.
I try drawing with VB.net graphics but not it is posible.
I need ideas for drawing on the map. I got to import the streets name in a Worksheet with latitude, longitude and angle.
I'm searching for a algorithm for text drawing

thanks for your help!

Hi,

Should be (easy ) todo if you know the right format of the database that mappoint uses. The whole vector idea is a question of little line segments with a start / end point, connecting to other vector etc.

But I never tryed to hack into it or neather had the need or the time to do it. Maybe someone know or you can find it. It can benefit others and increase the value of mappoint for some people.
