I've put breakpoints in my script where I add or remove my tile layers, and I'm not inadvertently doing that. My tiles are generated programmatically and if I put a breakpoint in the tile generation code it stop

If I remove all of my breakpoints, make sure the .dll is in the GAC (A most horrid of institutions I might add), and hit F5 (with MSN messenger closed, of course)-- a) Messenger signs me in automatically b) I click my name to open the drop down [I hit ok to the debughook, and click my name again] c) I turn on my addin. d)W

      • Hello, In the past, I removed and add a new pushpin to just move it. But that's quite slow. Is there another way of doing this I've tried to set the new coordinate to the LatLong property of the VEPushpin object. Like this: myVEPushpin.LatLong = new VELatLong(lat, long); But the pin doesn't move. Is this supposed to work Greetings, Maarten
