On the Garmin Drivesmart 61 LMT-D all the symbols seem to be showing up on the map except that for ASDA. It shows on the satellite screen but not on the map screen. Any ideas?

Garmin doesn't like ASDA?
Have a look at your folder where all of your Garmin POIs (.csv and .bmp files) are:
1. Do you have POI files for ASDA?
2. Can you look at the ASDA .bmp file?
3. What size is the ASDA .BMP file?
4. Try saving the ASDA .bmp file as a windows .bmp file as a 44x44 sized icon.
5. Reload all of your files via POI Loader.

Are these pre-installed POIs or ones you've added yourself? _________________ Where there's a will ... there's a way. |

Thanks Privateer:-
Yes I do have those files in the folder in which are all the others that do show up. I did try a second go with POI Loader with the same result. The bitmap is 22X22 (which I now understand will have to be enlarged) and which is the same size as all the others which do show up. The bitmaps show in my folder just as clearly as all the others, odd innit.
Thanks sussamb:-
These POIs are all third party creations from various nationalities and which I have downloaded myself and one which I have created myself, probably on MS Paint though I can't now remember and which seems to have escaped from my system.

Are you using a Windows or Mac computer? I think you're using Windows as you mention MS Paint. Windows should be OK but Mac needs to use a program that can save .bmp files as Windows BMP.
The ASDA icon might be a corrupt file. I suggest that you find MS Paint (whilst it's basic, it really is the best icon editor out there) and re-edit that ASDA icon.
