Microsoft Streets & Trips and Centrafuse
The issue with using Microsoft Streets& Trips in Centrafuse in my case had to do with the default installation path. I could not get CF to launch it with the "&" in the path. When installing, change the path to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Streets and Trips"
If you already installed Streets & Trips in the default path, uninstall it and reinstall it in the new path, or you will end up with a duplicate installation and/or an error message when trying to launch.
If you are using USAPhotoMaps or another program that can call to S&T, or if you want to prepare it to be used with another program that calls S&T (just in case), convert your hard drive to NTFS, if it isn't already. Create "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Streets & Trips" and then use the LinkD tool from the Windows 2003 Resource Kit to create and link "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Streets and Trips" to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Streets & Trips". Install as usual, and it will "appear" to be at both places, but is actually only on your hard drive once.
The application name you can use in CF is "Map", unless you call to a specific saved map in the parameters blank in the external application setup, then use the name of the saved file (usually without the extension).
I seem to have problems in CF with anything that contains an "&", so try your best to get around them.
Hope this helps!!!:

What's good people? I see there's App/windows name for embedding Street Atlas 2004, well what about 2008, is it the same minus or plus using 2008 instead of 2004. Used liquid studio xml to embed 2008 into the config xml, but no go. It shows up in Centrafuse nav setup but I don't even get a try to out of the prog. I like Centrafuse and would love to continue to use it. Already had 2008 before I started to read the forum and find out how much off a pain in the aztec it is to get working in Centrafuse. Anyway can anyone help a brotha out. Or I'm I, bleeped, and just need to invest in iguidance or mappoint. Please tell me it ain't sooooooo. One other thing DVD's not playing either. Works fine when running in PowerDVD 5 or windows media player, but not when it's run thru Centrafuse. Have read other inquiries on the subject but haven't seen one with an answer. If I missed it please point the kid in the right direction. I've had better luck with street deck getting dvd to work but just like the setup & look of Centrafuse better. Thanks newbie need ubie help
