Funny you guys mentioned this.

When I started with UI-View way back when, I used Street Atlas 5.0 and made
up all of the maps I would need.

Since then, I have painstakingly made sure that I still have copies of those
maps.

Roger made a great program but like someone said here, it is an orphan with
no one to step up and continue his work.

I would love to upgrade to something easy (what is easy?) and install
something new. The latest Street Atlas I have is from 2014.

Anyway, that's my $0.02 for this thread. Carry on.

73,

Preparing to retire, I found several original Precision Maping disks.
Are they of any value now?

I went to activate yet another Precision Mapping 9.0 install for a rebuild
of
my APRS UI-Webserver setup (moving the whole setup to an SSD) and was

I.e. it is now NOT POSSIBLE to activate Precision Mapping in the normal
way.
However there are work-arounds.


1) If you only want to use Precision Mapping 9 with UIview and the PMap
9
Server plugin (i.e. not use the program stand-alone outside of UIview
32), you
don't need to do anything. Even the "un-activated" Precision Mapping
database
will work inside UIview. Install Precision Mapping the usual way, but
ignore
the prompt to register the program the first time it is run. You can then
run
the PMap Data with UIview indefinitely.


2) The Windows Registry is the vast and inscrutable database that contains
information about everything ever added to the Windows system. It
includes
data and user preferences for every program on the system. It contains
data and
user settings about every piece of hardware installed on the system and
far
more. You see tiny excerpts of the Registry displayed to the user when
you
use the Windows Device Manager, Windows Scheduler, Sound Controls, etc.
Everytime, you install a program that requires a registration key or
activation
code, almost always the "magic numbers" you enter into the program are
stashed
away in the the Registry.

[A rare exception is UIview when you complete the setup by entering your
callsign, name and registration code during the first-time setup. UIview
stores
this info in the file "UIreg.bin" located in the program's own folder,
rather
than in the registry. However, the vast majority of Windows programs
stash
this kind of license data in the registry, often in encrypted format.]

For Precision Mapping 9.0, add the following lines to the Windows

Registry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\CtrlSoftM7]
"CLSID1309P"=""

Open a basic text editor like Windows Notepad or similar. Copy/paste
the
lines above into it. Save the file as something like "Pmap9.reg" . Be
sure
the file name does NOT have the normal extension .TXT. and ensure the
file
is saved in basic raw text format; i.e. not as a Word document or similar.

.REG files are basic text files, but have the "magical" property of being
treated differently by Windows. Double-clicking a file ending in .TXT
normally makes it open in Notepad or WordPad. Double-clicking a .REG file
causes Windows to try to add it to the Windows Registry. It will only
process
the entry, if it meets the exact structure shown above.

From the Windows File Explorer, RIGHT-click the file, and choose
"Merge...".
This reads the file entries into the Windows Registry.

Each time you start the stand-alone Precision Mapping, it will prompt to
register. Dismiss the prompt and continue with the program. This will
happen
indefinitely. This workaround works on all flavors of Windows from Windows
2000
to the latest Win 10.
