Where is the key to set the POI's to switch off above 5mph?

Inside ..\copilot\datacd\language.dat (which is editable by notepad ~ try changing uk=J to uk=Exit (twice) for better motorway speach) there is an entry

UK=You have selected passenger mode. The Passenger mode should not be used by the driver while the vehicle is being operated.

Is this a hangover from an earlier version or is there a way to enter passenger mode which I have not yet found?

Alternatively does anybody know where the key is that sets the POI's to switch off above 5mph? It is really annoying for the passenger to be guiding to a POI and it keeps disappearing from the screen!

Thanks Paul

There is a setting in the options to configure this. Check that you have the latest version, the early versions of CP didn't have the option.

Uh, I'm talking about the POIs disappearing - sorry I wasn't clear in the original post. Embarassed

I think this is the first time I have asked a question that has not been answered!

What incentive can I offer Twisted Evil

Form what I have seen of language.dat it contains phrases used by all of the ALK products and for all languages. So I suspect that the phrase in question is only relevant in some other product. I vaguely recall seeing passenger mode mentioned in a blurb on one of the products but I can't remember which one. I've been running an extended test of the contents of language.dat to see which phrases get used and which ones don't.
