Hi guys,

I'm trying to convert a set of pushpins from Autoroute 2007 into a TomTom OV2 file. When I did this last time (about 2 years ago) I was using an older version of Autoroute and it worked fine - I think I used POIConverter. However having just tried it again it now fails. I can only assume PIOConverter doesn't support some change to the axe file format.

Even if I couldn't find a way to import an axe file I'd assumed Autoroute might let me export in some other format, but seemingly not... :-(

So, does anyone have any ideas on how to get a set of Autoroute 2007 POIs into another format? If I've missed something obvious I'll be very happy...

I had already tried POIConverter with no success, but I thought I'd give it another go...

Turns out I didn't RTFM - it doesn't like being installed in "Program Files" - I stuck int in a path with no space and it now works fine. Thanks for spurring me into trying it again :-)

Ahhh you beat me to it.

That caused me lots of problems before I realised I needed to leave no spaces in the folder name. As long as the folder is a single word or multiple words joined by '_' it should work.

Glad you got it working.
