Folks Note that this importer has actually been out for some time and like Eric says is completely unsupported! It does work well though. Note that there have been some alterations to the original SpatialImporter already and it now runs as a decent standalone product.
Don't expect any rasters though! :) If anyone wants a copy of the latest VB code I will pass it on.

Also, this is just a 'developer sample' and not everything works or was intended to work, as far as supporting 'importing', this is nothing new, there's always been the AddPushPin method, what MapPoint 2002 (out since April) added was just more Add* methods including Line, Polyline, Shape, Textbox. Anyway, expect a related article to appear on MSDN and extensive coverage on the MP2K Magazine ( http://www.mp2kmag.com ).
