    MapPoint 2006 - what's up with it?

    Just got MapPoint 2006 but when I try and run it in RR, it brings up a dialog telling me the registry entries aren't corect and I need to re-run setup. RR then hangs with a switch to/retry dialog.

    So much for backwards compatibility.

    interesting, there have been reports that this was indeed working fine.

    I got the box of Mappoint 06 right here to install, just haven't had the chance to play with it, just don't know when I'll get to it.

    Well, I'm trying this on Vista (did I mention I like to be on the cutting edge?) and MPT 2004 has the same problem.
