Garmin Nuvi610, all updated using the webupdater version numbers unknown

I have created my own POI's for the shops I look after
using the structure of -4.17597,55.760874,"EAST KILBRIDE 01355 236342" in a csv file.
The POI loader wors fine and the POI's are visable in custom POI's however when selecting a POI the screen displays
"EAST KILBRIDE 01355 236342"
"Alert Information:"
"Distance: 1319ft"
"Speed: 1mph"

This has not happened with any other csv POI files I have loaded, how can I remove the Alert Information details

Is it possible to edit the Favourites on the PC

Thanks Graham

Did you load the POIs using Manual or Express method?

Thanks I will try EasyGps

The POI's were loaded with the Express method. I loaded them in exactly the same way as the other POI's.

I tried copying them to a new cav file but no difference

You must have created a file whose name contains one of Garmin's reserved words, or more likely, you've got a number "1" in the name.

POI Loader applies some "Eye of Toad, Leg of Newt" logic and decides that you want all POI's to have a 1 mph Speed Alert :-)
