  1. Thanks to all who've replied and for the great advice. Got it sorted now and it works a treat - including editing as suggested by several. Happy caching, S.
  2. Thanks - this was my experience. I unzipped the file but it contained only one gpx file. I opened it with a text editor and was able to read what appears to be either XML or a variant of. What didn't seem to work (but I need to recheck as I was in a hurry) was copying the (multi-cache) gpx file to my Garmin Montana 650t GPS which could then read them. I've downloaded individual cache gpx files previously and copied and used them successfully so I'm quite happy with the file directories and where to place them. Thanks again, S.
  3. Fair call. The size of the file appeared too large for a single cache but I opened it with a text editor and examined the XML. Admittedly not to the end of the file. What I'm wanting to do is copy individual GPX files to a Garmin GPS based on a query rather than needing to click on each cache individually and then either 'Send to GPS' or down load the GPX file to a temporary directory and then do a bulk copy to the GPS. I would have thought that this was something that was common? Anyway, if I copy the single multi-cache GPX file produced by the pocket query to my Garmin it can't read it. Any ideas / suggestions - and again thanks to those who've been there and take the time to pass on their experience. Really appreciated.
  4. Thanks for the replies - very useful. You are right that was probably trying to download the Preview rather than the query result. That said, although I now seem to get a zip file with a GPX, it seems to be for one cache rather than all in the query result set. I'm sure I'll get there and its all simply my own lack of familiarity and understanding - so thanks for all the assistance of those who've been there already. Happy caching, SJT.
  5. Hi, Apologies if this has already been answered. I want to download GPX files from a Pocket Query. I can create the query and it runs fine. In the drop down combo box I have selected the file format as "GPS Exchange Format (*.gpx)". Notwithstanding, when I download the result the file is a LOC rather than GPX. I'm obviously missing something obvious. Anyone able to assist? Thanks in advance, SJT_NZ.
