Mappoint 2004 - get Longitude and Latitude values

[Jochen]

Hello,

I'm currently trying to programm a Windows Application that
embedds a MapPointControl.

My question is, how I can retrieve the Longitude and
Latitude from a spot on the map, e.g. the Mouse position.

Unfortunately the Location Object does contain these
values but I couldn't find a way to retrieve these values.

Any suggestions?

greets

Jochen

Jochen,

Take a look at this article, with a little trig you can retrieve the
lat/lon:

You will find a port of the code to C# in the discussion area for the
article:

If you're programming with MapPoint, there's a lot on the site you
will find of value, but little of it is ported to C# yet..
