http://maps.yahoo.com/py/maps.py?BFCat=&Pyt=Tmap&newFL=Use+Address+Below&addr=6031+Connection+Drive&csz=Irving%2C+TX+75039&country=us&Get%A0Map=Get+Map

It is listed here, so you can also do directions on Yahoo! Maps

Like from DFW (just an example)
http://web13.yp.yahoo.com/py/ddResults.py?Pyt=Tmap&slt=32.897900&sln=-97.039703&newaddr=DFW&newcity=Dallas-fort+Worth&newstate=TX&newzip=&newcountry=US&newqty=9&newerr=3001&tlt=32.894300&tln=-96.966700&newtaddr=6031+Connection+Drive&newtcity=IRVING&newtstate=TX&newtzip=75039-2607&newtcountry=US&newtqty=9&newterr=1000&ct=us

Oh, I hope that works...
