Hi all,
Am pretty new to GPS - I have no trouble adding gpx poi's but cannot seem to get the csv pois to work. Can anyone help me overcome what I am sure is a stupid problem caused by ignorance.

I have a nuvi 780 and Mapsource 2008

I would appreciate it greatly.

Can you tell us what the problem is? Does it load but not display? Does it not load? Any errors displayed? Which POIs give you a problem? Are you writing your own? Etc??

Thanks.
