TTN3 postcode searching

Hi All.
I'm a very new user to TTN3 and its my 1st Sat nav system. How do you do a post code search? is there some other add-on needed to find places by just entering the postcode?

Just start typing the postcode instead of a town/city and you'll get the postcodes appearinf in the list below.

If you want full Post Code navigation then you should download the free utility, written by Niels Thomsen, from the Digitools website:

Thanks to all, ( this forum thingy is great)

Ive been to neils site, downloaded the ukpostsode, but stil have some problems launching it. Following the steps i extracted the 5 files, noted that when i ran setup.exe (step3) application manager lanched, but i did not seen any reference to "uk postcode " in the PROGRAMS TO ADD window.
I did tick the box to indicate installation to the default location and clicked ok. I did not see a message on the ipac 2210 to indicate successful regisration of the .ocx control (is this the fault?) Nevertheless i pressed on and copied over the ukpostcode.exe and the ukpostcode.dat files to the ipac to the SD card into a new directory i named "UK(space)Postcode". I can see thes files in the ipac using windows explorer. The exe file has its own icon, but the .dat file has what i think is the windows std icon for a file not associated with an application, ( wavy window icon??).

I created the shortcut and have put that into windows/start menu/programs and it appears there ok. BUT when i tap it to luanch it says
"Cannot find ukpostcode ( or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available." Ive trried launching the application directly from the resident location on the SD card but got same message. Ive repeated the creation of shortcut and the placing of it a couple of times but no change.

I would really apreciate a step by step rescue if possible
I am sure i have just made a basic mistake somewhere, which is why i have wrote this epistle to provide as much info for a rescue mission (or is it mission impossible)

Thanks Roco.

Copy the CAB file to your storage card and run it from there using Pocket Explorer.

Either that - or install CheckPOInt, which will install the necessary control (note - GPSAssist 2 doesn't install it; it's not written in a programming language that requires it). You don't have to use CheckPOInt - merely to have it installed.

Perhaps Niels would like to take this up and post a small FAQ on his site.

On anither note I would like to congratulate Niels on this great bit of software, I'm just going to make a donation to his expenses via PayPal.
