Answer 1

create textblock object and set the properties...and then ad child to specific location to ur map

eg.

TextBlock textBlock = new TextBlock();

textBlock.Text = Text;

textBlock.FontSize = txtSize;

..

..

..

MainMap.AddChild(textBlock, Location);

Answer 2

And what is "MainMap"?

If it's instance of "Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.WPF.Map" then it does not have AddChild() method and MainMap.Children.Add() does not accept location argument either ...

Answer 3

I believe in the code provided the MainMap variable is an instance of the MapLayer class. Add a MapLayer as a child of your map and then use the AddChild method on the layer to add the TextBlock.
