Viewing CheckPoint .ov2 locations on AutoRoute

Anyone know if it's possible to display multiple POIs contained in an .ov2 file using MS Autoroute (2003)? This could help me identify duplicate speed cams from different databases and so help a lot with deduplicating. I guess to do it properly, one would need to load multiple overlays - anyone done this yet and prepared to offer advice?

Thanks!

You'd need to use a conversion tool to extract the contents to a .csv file first, POIEdit can do this.

I know Autoroute can import data contained within a .csv file as PushPins as can MapPoint. Instructions here.

You can certainly import multiple overlays in MapPoint but I can't speak for AutoRoute, however POIManager can weed out duplicates without needing to import into AutoRoute.

I use Autoroute 2003, as I have to visit various Sainsbury's and CooP stores every day across the south. Both of the .OV2 files have been converted to .CSV and imported to Autoroute as PushPins then from properties change the pushpin to pick up the .BMP that matches the OV2 and the appropiate BMP will be displayed on Autoroute for each entry.
