MPMileage

Batch Mileage Calculator for Microsoft MapPoint

MPMileage is a batch mileage calculator for Microsoft MapPoint. Unlike the MileCharter add-in, MPMileage calculates point-to-point route mileages listed in a database. MPMileage works as a standalone application that calls MapPoint in the background. Source and destination locations are pre-located in a MapPoint map file.

MPMileage supports all of MapPoint's routing options. It also supports modern multi-core computers and is capable of parallel processing for additional speed.

MPMileage requires Microsoft MapPoint 2006 (or later), a suitable database source, and Microsoft .NET 4.0 (or later). The supported database sources are currently Microsoft Excel 1997 (or later), Microsoft Access 1997 (or later), and ODBC. Microsoft SQL Server is supported through the ODBC option.
