Sendero is working on such a utility, but really you don't need it, the system can support multiple user pdb files in your maps folder, just rename user.pdb to some other pdb file name and bingo you are in business.
Going out of town? Want all those pois in one file? No problem, start with a fresh user.pdb file add all your pois then afterwards rename the user.pdb file to Chicago.pdb. Then go on a trip to Toronto, add a bunch of new POIs and rename user.pdb to Toronto.pdb. Now all your pois are in separate pdb files.
Another tip, you can add something specific to a field say the "Tag's" field so then you can quickly search on that field and find all POIs you created during your trip to Toronto for easy editing. Or you don't even have to add anything, just search in the city field for Chicago and presto all your user POIs you created in Chicago will be found for easy editing.

With my lack of experiences in the beginning of using GPS, , I created several different user POI files, and now I wish I could conbine them also. Can the conversion utility someday include a feature like this? That would be awesome.

I did the install while out of town and with the encouragement of a friend. The bad news is that I have saved some POI data on version 5.0 before converting the user POI file from version 4.22. How silly of me! Now I am hoping that there is a way to combine the two user files. My only thought is to convert the old user POI file and manually add the new data by putting in the latitude and longitude information and adding the additional information. The thing that troubles me is that if I should make an error, the out-of-town POI information may be way off and I am not able to get back to those places in a timely manner. I have read that one can copy the information to the clipboard in version 5.0. Is it possible to paste this same information into the new database? Thanks for any suggestions. There are only a few new ones to add, but it seems like a rather daunting task to me at this moment. Thanks, Joleen -------------------------------------- Power up the Internet with Yahoo!
