Robert, 

To look up POIs near a particular  intersection , you will want to perform
an Address Lookup.
1. N for Navigation
2. V for Virtual mode 
3. SPACE with S (READ with S) to Set an Address 
-Enter State: (first few letters should do) 
-Enter CIty:
-Enter Address Number: (Press ENTER to bypass this and to go to the Street
Name field) 
-Enter Street Name: (Enter one of the street names and a list of
cross-streets will  appear) 
-Define this address as your Virtual Position.
4. Do A for a list of POIs within a quarter of a mile  or to be  specific,
do a SAPVE with F with fields for distances, categories, subcategories and
string.

Kevin
