I have a Micromaxx MM95563/Mio168 Clone running TomTom5, synced up via Active Sync to MS Outlook. Has anyone got any advice on how to set the PDA to allow for the route planning via Contacts Navigation facilty to work.

If I go into contacts on the PDA, then to a contact that has a post code, then to tools which brings up the 'navigate to' and choose it, I either get a message says cannot open GPS or the address is wrong. Any help would be appreciated, like which files should be where to get it to work.

When entering a contacts address in Outlook, don't type the address in the address box but click the Address Tab and then fill in the fields.

The above will now work for all contacts with a straightforward address.

It will not work if there is no house number, only a name. In this case use Post Code search, (remember not to leave a space between the numbers in the post code), which, in most cases, should get you pretty close to where you want.

Or if for example the address is something like 52, Browning House, Somewhere Road..... Again, Post Code search will get you there.
