 Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2007 3:52 pm Post subject: Missing Dutch Postcode Menu |
 |
|
Hi, I'm running v6.520 on my tt go300 using Western European map v660.1219. My zip file contains the GB and Netherland post codes.
If I try to navigate to a Dutch postcode (or plan a journey) when i'm in the UK I only get the choice of GB postcodes.
I've read various forums that suggest I should get the menu choice of GB or Netherlands postcodes.
Not a major problem yet but a bit of a mystery. Any solution?
Regards |

I'm sure I've read that you DON'T get a choice. You have to actually be in the Netherlands before it will accept Netherlands postcodes.
Just a thought, it might work on the "virtual" TomTom in TomTom Home, if you set the "Present Location" to the Netherlands.
EDIT - Apparently this is only since v6 software. See THIS THREAD for more details. |

If your current location is anywhere but GB or the Netherlands, or as Andy rightly said about using the Virtual Device, you get to choose which Postcode you want to use.

It does. Using TomTom Home I just did a route from a friend's house in Holland to TomTom HQ in Amsterdam, using their postcode 1017CT
