POI question.

[Rob588]

I recently downloaded a POI database onto my HP 2210 which works fine.

Is it possible to get into the POI database and add additional "locations" that are currently missing (For example a new "McDonalds" that has just opened). I believe that the file is a .OV2 if that helps!!!!

Cheers,

Rob,

Yes it is, you'll need to install POI Edit fron dnote:- http://www.poiedit.com/
once this is loaded you can get access into any .ov2 file.

You can then down load the postcode files form Points Of interest (from this sebsite), serach for the postcode that matches the "New Mac" location, then copy & paste into a new or exiting ov2 file.

One other way to get a location is to convert MS AutoRoute points, a little more work but the same outcome.

InTT4, so I guess also in TT5, you can add POIs to add-on POI databases from within TT.
