The poi.dat file is the built-in POI file that comes with the map. You can't edit it.

Any poi's that you add yourself must have 2 components: an 'ov2' file and a 'bmp' file, each with the same filename.

And yes, inside the map folder is the correct place to put them.

when i unzipped the pois zip i just got a file called pois so i used winrar to unzipp that then i got the pois files i needed put them in the map folder all working fine now thanks for your help one more thing when you take your tomtom out of the car do you slid the clip from the back of the tomtom or pull the ball from the socket the clip is very hard to get off but i think if i keep pulling the ball from the socket it will get slack

Slide it off, you're not supposed to pull the bal out of the socket!
