Patrice,

I just want to thank you again for sharing this routine. I have to show locations from my map to field crews and I am using this constantly. I have created a custom menu button for it to make it even simpler. Set the LISP to load at startup and one click and you've got the Google Earth image.
Great time saver for me.

Did you get this figured out or are you looking for some help?

Fixed? It is not an internal function. But you can add this functionality through an add-on application. Besides the mentioned LSP routine you can also use the GEarth freeware utility - it works not only in Map but also in AutoCAD and even AutoCAD LT. See:
