 |
|
| I have had this software for ages and not used it for a while. I am a little confused as the what type of file is used for POIs. In the pocket GPS speedcamera database it uses .txt when i check out PoiEdit 2007 it converts my Tomtom pois to .upd and in Igo POI explorer it converts them to .db. Which format does it use? |

If it is iGO 2006 Plus, then you can use the .txt file(s) from PGPSW.
You just put them in the 'igo/poi/speedcam' folder.
iGO will convert them next time it is started. You then need to activate them on the Warnings menu. |

Thanks for the quick reply.
Will it do the same for the .upd and .db files? |

Not quite sure what you are saying. The iGO program converts the any correct type .txt file that you place in the speedcam folder. |

and the result is the two files mention, so just use the .txt file.
You can, if you wish, delete everything in the Speedcam folder and when you add the .txt file the other two you mention are created by iGO.
