The information in this article applies to:

 == Microsoft Automap Streets Plus for Windows, version 5.0 == 

= SYMPTOMS =

When you move a large number of Pushpins from one folder to another folder in the Pushpin Explorer, the computer may appear to stop responding (hang).

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Automap Streets Plus for Windows, version 5.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

= MORE INFORMATION =

When you try to move 2,000 or more entries from one Pushpin set into another, the following message is displayed:

The Pushpin Explorer is trying to open a set which contains more than 2,000 Pushpins. This could take a long time. To improve performance, use the Explorer to separate your Pushpins into sets of less than 2,000. Are you sure you want to continue?

If you choose to continue, it can take more than five minutes to complete the action. Actual speed depends on the speed of your computer and the amount of available memory.
