Ahhhhhhhhhh POI Conversion

 

I'm sure it's here someplace, but I can't seem to find it. I want to convert my Garmin files to POI (cvs) and convert my CVS files to my Garmin.

What software do I use?????

Garmin files?

What format are you asking about?

gpi

If you are talking about the .gpi file on the garmin. You need to get PoiLoader from Garmin's website, and it does the conversion for you.

Sorry I guess I didn't

Sorry I guess I didn't explain it well enough what I wanted to do. I know how to load a poi file.

What I have is a Garmin .gdb file and want to convert it to a .cvs POI file. I don't think POI loader will do this. At least I can't figure out how to do it with it.

I also have so other POI (.cvs) files that I'd like to convert to a regular Garmin .gdb file so I can actually look at them as waypoints.

Thanks
