I stumbled on this article....

If I understand things correctly Excel can retrieve/work in conjunction with Microsoft Map Point.
I have map point 2006 and Excel 2003.

Can any one explain how to set up excel where I can plug in an address and it would pull up distance and travel time?...or send an example of such?

This would make my whole life so much simpler.....thus happier.

I am what you might say as only a novice when it comes to Excel. I am "ignorant" to VBA functions etc.

Thanks you in advance for your time/support.
