Some people are working on Volvo Dealers (USA-In Progress), but have furnished me with .gpx files and I don't have a clue how to convert them to .cvs files. I know "poiedit" will do that, but can't to seem to work my way through it.
You can use .gpx files interchangeably with .csv

POI loader doesn't care if it is a .gpx or a .csv file. It will load them both onto your GPSr. If you need the .csv file, i.e. want to open and modify them, there are several .gpx to .csv converters. Just do a search on Google.

GPX Files have more data
If you convert them to CSV files, you may lose some data, such as the phone numbers. And the ability to dial the number from a bluetooth enabled GPS device.
As mkahn said, GPX will work just fine without being converted to csv.
I plan to live forever. So far, so good.
Same Format?
It appears 'acarter' is wanting to eventually combine the state files into one (USA-In Progress) file. Won't he then need all files in the same format; or is there a program available that will combine 50 files of different format into one file?
