POI's

[KenD]

Hi All,

Have been using Tom Tom2 with CheckPOInt 3.2 on my Ipaq 3970 for some time now with geat success, but I haven't been able to get the Fuel Station LOGO's, i.e BP (have an account with them and do a lot of travelling) to appear on the maps which would be very helpful.

I've down loaded the POI's from the web to the Ipaq and they appear to have transfered to the Ipaq, I've followed the instructions I have and ticked the appropriate box's, but nothing appears on the map.

Can anybody advise me on what I am doing wrong?

Check that you have 2 files, BP_Garages.bmp and BP_Garages.ov2, in your map folder.

Start Mavigator, then File, Properties, POI, the check BP Garages. OK to close.

You should see BP Garages on the maps.

You don't need CheckPoint to display the BP POIs.

Thanks for your quick reply,

Don't appear to have the 2 files, BP_Garages.bmp and BP_Garages.ov2, in your map folder.

What do I do next?

Download the POIs from http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/tomtompoi.php

Unzip and copy the files to your map folder and follow the above.

Many thanks 'Talkingbollox' (which I know your not). Followed your instructions and managed to get them to work OK.
