Hi not a programmer but know my way round code. Can anyone please assist me. a need to have a map of a English town in visual basic browser that will have icons that are updatable or if you hover over them it will give you a status update. The map has to be available of line and online. It clearly won't update if offline that said the information is fed to each icon via SQL database. And unless that's offline then the icons can be updated.
Can anyone assist and possibly provide or direct me to source code ? Need a solution urgently so if there is anyone in the UK available to assist me on the above l would be happy to discuss terms

Thank you in advance for your assistance on the above.
Jon

You're in the wrong place, CodeProject members do not provide solutions to order, I'm afraid.

Thanks for putting me straight on my request. It wasn't meant to come across as a request for solution to order it was a genuine request for pointers or assistance
Apologies if l offended anyone

No offence was taken, I was merely pointing out that what you are asking for is not offered here. Your post ended with the following statement:
Need a solution urgently so if there is anyone in the UK available to assist me on the above l would be happy to discuss terms
That certainly implies that you are asking for a complete solution, and are willing to pay for it.

Richard thanks and you are correct the phrasing l used was incorrect I meant if anyone new of a talyor made solution l would pay for it. As in software package.
Choose my words more clearly next time
Thanks jon

While Richard is correct in his comment above, here's a suggestion. Investigate the capabilities provided by Google. There are a lot of websites out there using mashups created in part with Google Maps and Microsoft's competing service (I forget the name of it). Anyway it's an idea, and best of luck with it. :)
