Well, live and learn! Hey Kevin, when you going to make a replay of some wild trek through the woods or jungle? You can't let these Trecker Breeze guys show you up! Jim

Yes, by default KeySoft hides .zdb (zip/postal code) and .cdb (city) files
as they are database files.

Hi kevin, you are so right!  I had to do the chord x on the mpower to
get it
to recognize all the Missouri files then when I copied them, GPS
opened
the map fine.  I realize it is pretty taxing on the poor old mpower
processor to copy files like that and would normally copy or move files
using the pc, but if I don't have access to my computer, it is nice to
know
that  copying or moving  maps can  still be done on the mpower though
it is
tedious.  Thanks!  Jim
