Ok the user pdb is there, but I have the feeling what happened was that we had 2 user poi files in the folder and I am thinking the wrong file was converted because the gps is not seeing any of my pois. What I will do since I erased one of the user poi files, is redo this and if I still come up with nothing, I'll give you folks a call. How will that be?

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.

Ok! Now, do those user pdt things get put on the windows machine from the pois in the user poi file? I didn't put any pois on the computer. So I have no idea where to look for this. Thanks.

You can put your routes under your maps folder if you wish as well its up to you as you are prompted where to load your routes from inside the GPS program. Hope this helps Charles.

I am just a bit confused as to what to put in that field so any help would be appreciated.I am going to take this out with me in a few minutes so will let you folksknow how well this does. Thanks.
