thank you John, I already had a look but maybe i missed it..i could not get it correctly. If I have an image of an area (jpg) somehow i should specify its coordinates. is it specified in a separate file from the jpg file itself? I managed to run map grabber example but it only creates jpg images. where are coordinates saved? regards, rnv

I need to display current location in the map and possible navigate user to certain point. the area of coverage is quite small (factory area). regards, rnv

Hi, i would like to create a simple control for smart phone (cf2.0) that changes its background color depending upon whether it is focused or not. i have the following code. class mylabel:Control{ protected override void OnGotFocus(EventArgs e){ base.OnGotFocus(e); this.BackColor = Color.Red;} protected override void OnLostFocus(EventArgs e){ base.OnLostFocus(e); this.BackColor = Color.White;} } The problem is it can get focus (and changes its bg color) but it seems it does not loose focus. if i inherit LinkLabel instead of Control then it works fine. What could be wrong? i would really appreciate. regards, rnv
