What code do i need to enter so that the map automatically sets my current location and sets the name of the place i have entered in a textbox as the destination ?
umm to take to current location you can use location sensor and in these blocks replace those first 2 number blocks with lat and long.

Hello there,
From the Google Maps documentation: you can search the place with a WebViewer.
For example, if I want to search "pizza seattle wa", I use:
https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=pizza+seattle+wa
As Aarush pointed out, you can use a LocationSensor to track the location, then use this.

Depending on your app's requirements, you might consider a Map control with Navigate:
The example shows how to do what you want and will also provide the route to get to the destination.

I want to make an app that has a map and can also navigate us to any place we search. So I want the app to add a marker at our current location and a different colour marker at the destination.
You can directly use this in a WebViewer.
Also, what if the user did not store Lat and Long? Aren't they the same without Lat and Long?
