OK talking about TomTom POIs here but I guess same applies to the ones here. If a business moves to a new location, should you move the POI's position, or delete it and create a new one? |

It only requires one step, and not two. _________________ Richard

Nt sure if you are talking about TomTom-supplied POIs or third-party ones for the TomTom, as the way to edit or correct them is different.
But if it is possible, I would think an edit to the original would always be best. |

Definitely do it in one step (as an edit) then.
I wouldn't trust them to get TWO things right in a row! |
