Loading .CSV and .GPX Files

 

I have been using the POI Loader to successfully load .CSV formatted custom POIs along with .BMPs and .WAV files on our 260 with no problems.

Now for the really stupid question -- Can you place .GPX files in the same folder and load them along with .CSV files into the single custom POI.GPI file?

I did a quick read of several FAQs and other great pages but nothing jumped out at me about loading both types of files. Yes, I could try it but wanted to get a reading from all the great ones on this site before messing up what is working now smile Thanks!

Duh...

answered my own question by re-readings Gary's great page. Here's what he has to say --

"Facts You Know

* (1) Custom POI files of .csv and .gpx type can be sent to your nüvi's memory using POI Loader. A file named poi.gpi is placed in the Garmin nuvi/Garmin/Poi folder on your nüvi.

* (2) Custom POI files of .csv and .gpx type can be sent to your installed SD or SDHC card (Removable Disk) using POI Loader. A file named poi.gpi is placed on the card at Removable Disk/Garmin/Poi."

I'll leave this post just in case someone else has the same question and overlooked the simple answer the way I did -BLUSH-
