Creating POI files

 
Sun, 06/15/2008 - 4:09pm

Does anyone wish to give a newbie some quick tips when creating a csv file. I enter each line manually after I locate the coordinates.This seems like a lot of work and something that my computer should be able to handle.I've been experimenting with the COPY/PASTE function and found some files easier to put together. Any other tips???

Thanks for any helpful info.
