Hi Matt, The GeoTrack that comes free with MIPro is off course somewhat limited wrt. possible applications. The free GeoTrack "server" is a standalone EXE running in the background, feeding the GeoTrack.mbx running inside MIPro. This is probably bothersome to get working in a VB driven setup.
The better option is to purchase the GeoTrack DLL/ActiveX component from its vendor, Blue Marble Geographics: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/products/geotrack.php This is off course not free, so I guess it comes down to a question of using your time or your money to get it up and running :-) Best regards/Med venlig hilsen Lars V.
