Doug,
The User.poi files cannot be merged using the block commands.
If you send them to me, we have a utility and we can combine them as a
Doug.bpi file. I am encouraging all users to send us their files to share
with others. Please indicate if your files can be added to the monthly
User.bpi file I will start creating after the release of version 3 and
making available to all users free of charge as a download or email.
I think you'll find city matches improved in version 3 as well.
Mike
