Garmin MapSource 6.13.7 Special.zip

Once again, thanks for the replies.
Evert...... I'm not sure that a negative indicates it's longitude as 57.101474,-2.242851 is as valid as -57.101474,2.242851 or indeed -57.101474,-2.242851 but of course they are completely different places each on the opposite side of the world, all longitude for the US would be negative but here in the UK anything East of Greenwich and the zero longitude meridian will be a positive number.
But even if I change the columns around I still get the error which just closes the POI loader program.
My guess is that the edited file still contains information that the loader does not like, the question is what ?.
When I goto save the edited file I get the Excel message...... this file may contain features that are not compatible with CSV, the keep this format which leaves out any incompatible features click yes. The odd thing is that even though I have just saved the file when I goto close Excel it wants to save the file again with the same message and I then get a this file already exists, do you want to replace it and then the incompatible message again.
Normally saving it the first time is enough.
Elsewhere on the site -factory.com/garmin-csv-file-format show the Name field in " " marks.
I have used Excel to format the columns A & B as numbers from general and C as text but that has not helped, might it be the absences of the quite marks is the problem ?.
dmauray... Does the line break need to be after the contents of C ?, I'm not sure how to add it ( Excel 2003 )
If I open the csv in Word it shows a carriage return at the end of each line. ( with non printable characters turned on )

If you do not like the appearance of your Garmin or the Freitzeitkarten-OSM maps than you can modify/change the TYP-file associated with the map. For this you should have a look at two important tools: JaVaWa GMTK which allows you to associate a different TYP-File with a map and TYPWiz 6 which allows you to edit an existing TYP-File. At least for me this has opened and whole new world in customizing BaseCamp and make it more useful for my needs.
This is also explained here: -osm.de/garmin/en/design.html There you can find some alternate designs.
Well, I figured it out. I had some time this afternoon and started digging through my firewall policies and found out it was a bandwidth-throttling policy on the 'software updates' category that was hanging the update. I'm not sure why it allowed the update to download and then caused a server timeout error before it could activate the update, but that's what was happening. Once I narrowed it down to that specific firewall policy, I was able to exempt *.garmin.com from the firewall rules and all is well.
