1. I wrote a small application by VB code, I used Mappoint ActiveX Control 2002 in this application.
2. After opened a map, I selected a position on the active map (Click mouse).
3. I want to get latitude and longitude of above position. but i can't do it.
Answer:
First, get the code from Gilles Kohl's famous article that allows you to get latitude and longitude from a MapPoint location object. Then use the BeforeClick event to get the x and y coordinates of the spot being clicked. Use the XYToLocation method to get a location object. Finally, use Gilles's code to get the latitude and longitude from the location object. Display the lat and lon in a label or a text box.
