Transfer of Favourites from one map to another

Hello,
I have a Tom Tom 5/HP4700 with the UK map. I have just bought the European Map CDs (which includes another version of the UK map. Also a new SD card to put them on. Since I would like to run all my maps on the new SD card is there a way of transferring my favourites onto my new UK map? Or do I have to enter them all over again?

Also, Can I transfer my favourites onto all of the European maps since all the specific country maps contain low-res data for the rest of Europe? I see it is possible to navigate across national boundaries so my Italian favourites are useful even when I am in France.

try copying the cfg file over and rename it to the new map folder name - it may or may not work.

Where would I find this? I does not appear to be in the GB map folder on the SD card

You will need to Untick 'Hide Extensions for Known Filke Types' in Folder Options.

The file is in the Map Folder.

The only CFG file in the map folder is to do with Outlook. and is called Great_Britain_Plus-Map.cfg
Is that it? It doesn't look right to me?

That's the file you want. The extensions are TT based and don't necessarily relate to normal Windows naming.
