About distributing an application created with the MapPoint Control

  • Article

After you create an application with the MapPoint Control, you may want to distribute it to others. Each computer on which the application is installed must have either a full MapPoint license or a MapPoint Control run-time license; otherwise, your application's calls to MapPoint will fail.

MapPoint Control licenses can be obtained from your Independent Software Vendor or from your Microsoft sales representative. For more details, please visit the Microsoft Mappoint Web site (https://www.microsoft.com/office/mappoint).

Your application can be deployed over a network or by portable media, such as a CD or DVD disc. Be sure to follow the instructions in "Create an installation disc for an application created using the MapPoint Control."
