Hi All,

I'm new to the world of GPS & tomtom so please excuse me if this has been asked before...

I'm about to get a TomTom 1 - I currently have an access database with all of my clients which i'd like to import into my new unit as POI's.

question - is this possible? what format does it have to be in to asign these as POI's

Thanks in advance

Yes is the probable answer

A bit about the layout of POI files

I think that CSV files need to be coverted to ov2 files & there is a tomtom utility for this that I can't currently locate - maybe someone else can help on that - POIedit might do is as well.
