Hi (and Welcome!)
You're dead right! I just had a quick look and the UK single file isn't there if you select Garmin POI Loader.
I'm not a Garmin user, so I've no idea if there's a technical reason for this, but I suspect not... as the single file versions are all in the list for the other countries.
Hopefully MaFt (database supremo) or another admin will be along shortly with better info than me. |

Very odd, and you are the first to have spotted it! MaFt is travelling back from CeBIT today so may not be around to investigate today but I'll ping him and ask him to comment once he's caught his breath

It was pulled last month as there is an issue with the Single File Database and nuvis not showing some cameras esp the Variable Cameras on the M25 / M42. _ See this thread
The problem also extended to a 200W and Redlight Cameras....
I'll do some checks later when i get a chance with my 760... |

Ah yes, the brain fog clears slowly.... Thanks Paul.
So the OP can use the "consolidated by type" version in the meantime?
Also, has anyone experimented with re-combining the consolidated set back into one file (with POI Edit or similar)? Is the Garmin happy with that? |

Yes. No problems reported there and i use it myself.

Ash10's Camera Manager actually uses the Single File Database and recombines it according to the users options, again no problems reported. The Single File Database is available but the option has been removed.
I'm going to have a play with the Single File Database over the week or so, when i get time. |

| As there is quite a bit of discussion in this thread I'll lock this one and we can continue in the other one. |
