I'm certain that Tenchy would be delighted if you gave him a clue how to do it. Or is it a simple case of RTFM? Very Happy

Fair enough! Smile

Going to Halfords tomorrow to hopefully have a play. Obviously they will have neither of the models I want to look at, but they should have something to get an idea from.

If you can get to a Currys that still have satnavs in the shop, they will be on open display. You can then play for as long as you like. In Halfords, they are in a glass cabinet and you have to have a quick look with a sales person looking over your shoulder.

My local Halfords had them I could play on, as did my PC World. Nothing beats hands on playing.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. As an ex TT user of about 10 years, it is a learning curve, but they are not bad units Smile
