Could someone tell me the POI file name in TT3? I need to preserve it for later re-load.

Thanks,
David

Ah! Just found the answer. The POI file is on the storage card but I guess you all knew that! Rolling Eyes

Anyway, I have unloaded the 2.07 CAB file from this site and I now have no POI's even though the file is still on the card. Why has the POI file apparently been disassociated and how do I get it back?

Thanks,

David

Inside the map folder, you should have POI.DAT, which are the 'built in POIs' that TomTom supply for that map (Major Roads of Europe doesn't have any).

If you add POIs of your own, they should be a .bmp file and a .ov2 file with the same name. The .bmp file is the icon, the .ov2 file is the data.


To select which POIs are displayed in TomTom Navigator then, assuming Navigator 2 or 3, File -> Properties, POI tab.
