Replying to myself again... I copied the URL strings from the my project's Settings.settings file, which is XML, so all of the occurances of & need to be converted back to ampersands: Google: "http://maps.google.com/maps?q={1},%20{0}&t=h&z=17"; Bing: "http://bing.com/maps/default.aspx?cp={1}~{0}&style=h&lvl=16&where1={1},%20{0}"; This works fine in GB. -- Dave Thayer Denver, CO _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
