| Open the first POI file using POIEdit, then choose File/ Append to concatenate the two POI files into a single element, if you want to add more POI files to the creation just continue using the Append function - Mike |

After the POI description, immediately type the "Greater Than Sign" and then the telephone number
Stratstone Land Rover, Milton Keynes}44-1908-518100
Where "}" represents the "Greater Than Sign"
Unfortunately, the "Greater Than Sign" is considered as an html tag, which is not allowed to be used on this forum.

Don't you have to remove the hyphens from the number?

I know that Richard (Oldie) prefers no hyphens in the number for the free PGPSW POIs. However I run TomTom Navigator 6 on a PDA, which doesn’t have the capability to phone numbers, but it does display them OK – so I’ve never had a problem. 
Regards,

I can call poi numbers with hyphens in them on my GO 510 without any problems.
TomToms own POIs often have hyphens in the numbers.
The hyphens are simply ignored by the TT. |
