it would be nice and i assume pretty profitable if some computer whizz kid would invent a piece of software that would allow me to input upto forty or even fifty postcodes, all within one county, ie..lancashire...which would then compoote a start point and a finish point, that would enable me to drive from one postcode to the next, without once turning back on myself... or am i just a lazy sod. ![Rolling Eyes](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif) |

You can pick it up quite cheaply (legally) if you look in the right place. _________________ Jock

As every route i do is a different one, its pretty difficult to bring them home and input them on my computer. ![Idea](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_idea.gif) |

Hi billchad,
What you need is the ability to optimise postcodes/POIs/destinations. I've added that to the topic's title for clarity.

Have a look at the above products that Lutz suggested, they can be bought for a PocketPC.
