LocationFinder: a web control findig places

Today a simple web custom control based on the Microsoft Virtual Earth APIs and that can search for places and/or business simply passing what and/or where, similarly to Live Local Search.

The control hasn't any property, but only a method and an event:

void Find(string what, string where, int start, int length)

Method that performs a what (business) search and/or a where (location) search (at least one of these two parameters is required)., for the answer you must wait for the event.

Parameters:
what: the business name, category, or other item searched for(es. "pizza")
where: the address or place name of the area searched for (es. "New York")
start: the beginning index of the results returned
length: the number of results to be returned (max. 20)

void LocationFinder_Found(object sender, VEFindResult[] results, VEPlace[] places, bool hasmore)

Event that returns a list of results and a list of places.

Parameters:
results: array of VEFindResult (list of results)
places: array of VEPlace (list of ambiguous places)
hasmore: true if there are others results (at the moment doesn't work!)

There are also two structures:

CalSoft.VEFindResult

Name
Description
Phone
IsSponsored
Latitude
Longitude

CalSoft.VEPlace

Name
Latitude
Longitude

(the function of each member is intuitive)
