Hi all,
I've got a little personal project on the go at the moment. Given a UK postcode, it will find the nearest railway stations and sort them by distance. I would like to be able to get walking directions from the postcode to the station from google maps. This is where I have problems.
I think i can do it using the webcontrol in VB.net, as I can plot the station or postcode on the map (but not both at the same time) using a stringbuilder and webbrowser control on the form, is there anyway of getting the directions using this method? or will i have to use a google control, such as the one described in this thread?
I've had a quick go at it and put the all code into a new class and added all the references required. When i run it all I get is a empty form, with "delete markers" in the status bar, bottom left. Would i have to add the googlemap.htm file to the project even though it is a VB.net desktop project?
With thanks in advance
Alastair
