3.27 Getting Toll Data from Lat/Longs<br />

If PC*MILER|Tolls was purchased and installed, toll data can be calculated in<br />

PC*MILER|Spreadsheets using latitude/longitude points, as in the example<br />

below.<br />

In this example, the Discount parameter is set to TRUE so that discount programs<br />

that are activated in PC*MILER (Options dialog > Tolls tab) will be used where<br />

they apply in toll calculations. The RouteType optional parameter is missing and<br />

therefore defaults to Practical routing. See section 3.15 for more on the Tolls<br />

function.<br />

3.28 Using the Avoid/Favor/Override Roads Option<br />

If the “Custom” option is turned on in the PCMSERVE.INI file (see below),<br />

PC*MILER|Spreadsheets will use the avoid/favor/override road settings created<br />

in PC*MILER. Note that favoring a road does not absolutely guarantee that it<br />

will be used (see the PC*MILER User’s Guide or Help for a description of<br />

avoiding, favoring, and overriding roads).<br />

This option can also be set by changing the CustomRoute setting to TRUE in the<br />

PCMSERVE.INI file located in your Windows or Windows NT folder. The<br />

default is FALSE. See Appendix A for more about the .INI file.<br />

CustomRoute=TRUE<br />
