&lt;p&gt;I wish I had found your - excellent, clearly explained, focused article about 4 or 5 hours ago .... &amp;nbsp;would have saved me from chasing my tail around the web looking for articles on SS 2005 &amp;amp; V Earth &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks a million&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What about the rest of the world though?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'm trying to construct a map based on Australian addresses. Do you know of a service that will allow me to do a reverse lookup in the same way?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I just downloaded and tested the attached sample here just fine. Are you sure you are running Visual Studio 2008? It sounds like either the target framework got changed or there is something wrong with your environment. Can you verify this?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;-B&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Note the parser error shows: &amp;quot;Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.1433; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.1433 &amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;YET the project properties shows Target Framework of &amp;nbsp;.NET Framework &amp;nbsp;3.5 !!!! &amp;nbsp;Don't understand this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any Ideas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks PauleyHoyt&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am trying the same with C# and VE 6.2. My georss.aspx return the rss file correctly if I run but when I give it in VEShapeSourceSpecification(VEDataType.GeoRSS, &amp;quot;georss.aspx&amp;quot;, l); It says &amp;quot;Unable to load source file&amp;quot;. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If I take the output of georss.aspx and save as xml and give the xml file name in the above function, map loads correctly with the points. Am I missing anything. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the great article anyways.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Northwind Meets Virtual Earth - Generate VE Maps with LINQ</title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/bethmassi/archive/2007/12/03/northwind-meets-virtual-earth-generate-ve-maps-with-linq.aspx#9537248</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Apr 2009 05:33:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:9537248</guid><dc:creator>krishnan</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Just ignore my question above, I was using XmlTextWriter in my georss.aspx and I had not mentioned the Response.ContentType = &amp;quot;text/xml&amp;quot;;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;reponse is now a real xml file and VE seems to understand it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now it works like a charm...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks a lot.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
