    Hi @Leinad

     

    Supposing that txtLocation contains your location in a coma separated format like this:

     

    51.51128434,-0.1191578

     

    You can use this formula:

     

     

    "http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Imagery/Map/Road/" &
    txtLocation.Text & 
    "/13?mapSize=500,500&key=<YourKey>"

     

    As stated in the article you mention, you can set the default property of txtLocation to the following formula in order to retrieve the location on a 'location aware' device.

     

    Location.Latitude & "," & Location.Longitude

    Hej Timl

    Yes that like is working, but is has the GPS coordinate it the link, what I want to use txtLocation so it can be different coordinate depending on txtLocation value, which is working fine as long I don't add any zoom value.

    Hi @Leinad

     

    Here's a link that works for me. The part that's highlighted controls the zoom level. I believe that this can be a number up to 21.

     

    http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Imagery/Map/Road/51.51128434,-0.11915781/13?mapSize=500,500&key=<YourKey>

    Hope that's of some help.
