You can use the Bing Locations API to retrieve the latitude and longitude of a location specified by name. There is a REST API that can provide responses in JSON or XML and there is also a SOAP API (just navigate through the docs to find the SOAP API reference). For example, this request does a lookup for location information by street in the US:
http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/v1/Locations/US/WA/98052/Redmond/1 Microsoft Way?o=xml&key=BingMapsKey
To start working with the Bing Maps REST Services, you must have a Bing Maps Key. To get a Bing Maps Key, take a look at this article.

Or check this article describing the use of the Resco Location Library. (Self promoting, sorry.) GeoCode class should help.
