I was wondering if Mappoint 2002 had an API that I could use to calculate the distance between 2 zipcodes? I am trying to do this through Visual Basic and have not been able to find any references to this. Thanks, Ross Lotharius

Gilles posted this simple example to the newsgroup a while back:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
   Dim loc1 As MapPoint.Location
   Dim loc2 As MapPoint.Location
   
   Set loc1 = oMap.FindAddressResults(, , , , "57642", _
         geoCountryUnitedStates)(1)
   Set loc2 = oMap.FindAddressResults(, , , , "88020", _
         geoCountryUnitedStates)(1)
   MsgBox loc1.DistanceTo(loc2)
End Sub
