Hi, Chris
Yes, I am using 2013.3 but had missed the user.pdb file in sharedPOIs.
Deleting the file has, indeed, cleared the problem and, so, I can now start
creating POIs again. However, I'm slightly confused by the manual as it
says that the user.pdb file is created in the folder holding maps and
commercial POIs rather than in sharedPOIs.
Thanks very much for your help.
Regards
Richard Bartholomew

Is this 2013 that you are using? Remember with 2012 and 2013 the user.pdb
file is not located in maps, it is located in sharedPOIs.
