Extras/Custom POIs question

I hope my question below makes since.

When I load custom POIs in my Garmin we know they show up under “Extras/Custom POIs”.

My question is … Let’s say I take a trip 500 miles from home. I need to find a Super Wal-Mart and I have a list of Super Wal-Mart’s in my Custom POIs … will my custom list come up automatically when I do a normal shopping search or do I have to go to “Extras/Custom POIs to search for my personal loaded Wal-Mart stores?

Thanks … Ben, OH

no, these two database cannot be searched together. if you do a normal shopping search you will only see options out of the built-in POI database ... you must go to "extras/custom" to see what you have loaded
