Probs with my 750

Well, not "problems" exactly.... I'm trying to set up my newest Nuvi (a 750) with RetiredTechnician's Rest Area POI file, (along with others) that I used to have on my old 650, which I gave to one of my employees. I had my old 650 all set up, no problem. But now, with this new 750, it looks a bit different when it comes up on the computer. Besides, since I did all this a year ago, and am suffering with a SERIOUS case of CRS, I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW I DID IT!!
Can somebody point me to the place that describes how to put in multiple POIs, combining them into a main GPI file? Which, BTW, I can't seem to find on my 750. The only GPI file I can find is in the POI folder with the sample Route 66 tour guide. I can see a GPX folder with "current.GPX" and "temp.GPX" files in there.
As I remember, there was/is a way to combine the different POI files so that I can choose them from the menu. Can someone PLEASE direct me to the post explaining how I can do that? I will forever be grateful....
Going away Friday in my little RV and I guess I'm too rushed to think straight. Hate to have to ask for help from you guys, usually I am pretty good at this stuff.

Nuvi 660 -- and not upgrading it or maps until Garmin fixes long-standing bugs/problems, and get maps to where they are much more current, AND corrected on a more timely basis when advised of mistakes.
Great!
Thank you, sir!

I sent you a email with something I have typed out in case I need it later.

You can use the same files you had setup for the 650 and install them on the 750. I have 2 garmins and update the POIs to both of them. They have the same list and menu formats that way.
