COMException Problem
Good Morning gang,
I'm learning how to program Microsoft MapPoint and have hit a snag when trying to run some code which is one of the project files of an O'REILLY book called "Programming MapPoint in .NeT" -Chandu Thota. Let me add a little background and mention that the book explains that the MapPoint APIs are COM and that we use .Net wrappers to use the MapPoint component.
I was able to get some code to run when creating projects from scratch by manually referencing the COM/Microsoft MapPoint reference. When I try to use the sample code that's when I get the error shown in the image. Do you think you guys can help me figure out how to get this to work?

Re: COMException Problem
The error you are seeing is because the MapPoint COM components aren't registered on the machine you are running them on. The book should explain how to install the MapPoint components.
