Hi,
The user.poi file gets converted into the user.pdb file.
If your user poi was in a folder called my poi then the user.pdb file
would be in that same folder.
If you point the converter directly to your maps folder on your
compact flash card, then the user.pdb file should be in the maps
folder on your compact flash card.
Hope this makes sense.
Chris
