I had another great time will everyone at the class tonight.  Learned something 
new and helped show something new to others.  Thanks to everyone who had a hand 
in it and especially to Steve for giving it.
   
  When I got home I checked the route that I had made in MapSource and found 
that I had saved the route as a "Garmin GPS Database" (.gdb) and that is what I 
had imported into GC.com and it worked for me.  Rich said that they saved a 
route as a "MPS File" (.mps) tonight and it worked for him.  There is also the 
option to save as a "GPS eXchange Format" (.gpx) in MapSource which I am 
betting that it would work also.  
  So it looks as if there are various different files that you can save a route 
in MapSource and be able to import into GC.com to get you Pocket Query of a 
route and in MapSource you can also alter the route or affix waypoints to 
places on the route, unlike the Google route that is only from start point to 
final point.
