Hello,

I am beginning to experiment with Map Point and Bing Map Services...

I have quite a few .ptm files that when opened in Map Point show a Polygon
of points all connected. However, when I login to the Bing Maps and try to
upload them as a datasource and hit polygon. I get an error stating that
flat files are not accepted.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Hayk,

There is a specification for polygon datasources that you will need to
follow at:

Then click "Requirements for Polygon Dataousrce".
