Searching POI with commas fails (ICN750)

[nik_guest]

When I try to search for POIs by name (ICN750) and type in a word I see a list like

McDonalds, Nottingham
McDonalds, Oldham

but as soon as I type a comma I get a "No matching points of interest" message, when clearly there are.

Am I the only one with this problem? And what can I do about it?

Cheers

Hi Nik
I just had a crack at this my self as it seemed a little odd you cant search for a poi by area. Assuming this is what you are trying to do.

I assume that the comma on the search screen is a delimitation and cannot be used. It diddn't work for me.

I did change the city/area selection on the poi screen and was able to see all the poi for a particular area/town but still couldn't search by name, when i tried it reverted back to an alphabetical selection, which is a little poor. I remember seeing another thread about this as the only other way to search for a poi by area is to pin point an area on the map screen an then search for the nearest poi. This way is clumbsy but not impractical.
