[gps-talkusers] Re: Loading multiple maps

Hi Mike, at present the Maps folder is set to the compact flash subdirectory as 
follows:

backslash compact flash backslash maps backslash southern england backslash 
- one map is loaded.

The other subdirectories of the compact flash include:

documents, GPS MP3 tutorial, UK POI, 

The subdirectories of 
compact flash slash maps
are:

east england
northern england
northern ireland
scotland
southern england
wales midlands

The route I need to compile goes from a point on the southern england map to a 
point on the east england map.

How do I access these maps simultaneously to create the relevant route?

I received the CF card loaded as above and GPS/Keysoft 6.1 installed on 
BrailleNote after a hardware upgrade.

Highly appreciated.

Deon
