I have a nuvi 200 and have loaded several poi files with poiloader and with no problem.
On this one, I made sure that I did the express upload, so no alert information should show up when I go to the poi file, but it is. I even did it twice. It shows:
The name of the company
The words "Alert Information" on the next line
The word "Distance:" and a number on the next line
The word "Speed:" and a number on the next line
The address
CSZ
There's no room for it to display the phone number, because of all this other stuff.
Can anybody tell me why it's doing this? I realize that it's probably Operator Error, but I don't know what I did.
Thanks

Wild guess...

Alerts come from the name of
Alerts come from the name of the file as well. So if you have a file name that has numbers, it can interrupt it as a speed alert.
Also, in the file, if you have @35 in the name, then it also sees it as an alert

Yes, you're right. I named the file CVS 24hr Pharmacy in North Central Texas. I guess that that's a no no!
