Try doing this!

I downloaded the State Parks POI, opened it using Excel and saved it to my desktop as a COMMA DELIMITED (csv) file. I did a 'batch convert' using POIEdit - instead of using a DESTINATOR COMMA SEPERATED source file I had to use a NAVMAN COMMA SEPERATED source file for it to work; from there I was able to convert to .ov2 format with no further problems.

Hope this helps! smile

If you have POI Verifier II, there is an option to convert the csv file to OV2. It doesn't require any prior csv file modification as does many OV2 converters ... Poi Verifier II does all the work for you. I downloaded the Combined State Park file and converted it with no problems.
