poi`s not accurate

[gilbates]

ok guys , finaly got the little chef poi info into cp4 only to find , at least for me , there not accurate , unless i have done something wrong of course ,

in the custom manager the little chef map co-ords look similar to the gatso info already there so i`m confident that i have imported correctly

but i checke on the a31 through the forest and couldnt find any sign of a little chef in the cp4 map , but it is listed in the custom manager

i have all relevant settings set correctly to show poi`s on the map on my pc

i realise that not all info is accurate and its all done by people donating info to the site , but i was realy wondering if any one else has noticed Little Chef problems or is it just me ?

Eh? On http://pocketgpsworld.com/tomtompoi.php it clearly says:

agreed

but i dont see Little Chef on my map on the pc anywhere

1 mile , 2 mile , 100 mile

cp4 imported happily enough and right or wrong i changed the txt from " on A31 " to Little chef on A31 , hoping to see it on my Pc map

but to no avail

further to above

the Little Chef data is inacurate and missing , dont get me wrong i`m not complaining , just thought it was worth a mention incase like me , you thought you had done something wrong on the import side

i have now sorted my probs , i think it was the fact that quotation marks where left in when i converted from ov2 to XLS and then into cp4

thats why the names never came up , maybe that or the fact the little chefs i checked for arent in the dbase at all , at least not on the stretch where they should be , the ones that are there in the dbase are within a mile of actual position though , as stated

anyone fancy doing an up to date Little Chef , damn handy places if your out for the day and kids get hungry , beats me how they ever stay afloat , there never busy

Hi,

I created a Little Chef POI file in June 2003 and I think it is a pretty comprehensive list as I went through all the Little Chefs in their brochure in print at that time.

I think I submitted it to this website soon after I created it, but it seems to have disappeared, so if anyone would like to try it and see if it's any more accurate, please PM me with your email address and I'll send it to you via email.

Regards,

Bo Peep.
