  1. I could limit the selections and create the "perfect" GPX file. However, I would rather have all caches in my vicinity. Sometimes you only have enough time/energy for a quick cache - and an easy cache with a TB doesn't meet my time constraints. As such, better to find a virtual cache, than no cache at all. Zigzag3
  2. GPXView is nearly perfect. I sure would like to see a couple more columns added to the initial screen (e.g., list of caches). 1) Cache type. I would like to sort on virtual, multi-point, etc. I am not a big fan of virtual. A 2 character code/abbreviation (i.e., VC) would be great for space purposes. 2) Travel Bug (checkbox). I like to home in on caches with TBs. Either a Y or N field, or Y or blank would do the trick. 3) Difficulty/Terrain. I suppose this is two columns - but combining the two fields into one column works for me. With above columns, I can quickly find the cache that is right for me. Thanks for this tool. For the technologically challenged, you have made it a no brainer. Simply load the GPX file and go. Thanks again, Zigzag3
  3. Like I said, I am new to IPAQ. I was wondering where the help button was. Seems it is under START - that make sense (not really). Thanks
  4. I am not IPAQ proficient - so I don't think to look at the tools button. Got my problems fixed. One more question: What does the browser setting do for me called - Enable external links?
  5. Finaly got everything working. Well mostly working. There are a couple of things that have me perplexed: 1) The distance and bearing columns don't seem right. The distance is in Kilometers (7800+) and the bearing always seems to be NW. I did the search based on my Oregon Zip code - yet it seems to think I am 4000+ miles somewhere else. Any idea what is wrong? 2) The longitude and latitude are not in the same format as Geocache.Com They show as 45.##### versus 45.##.###. (I know one is HH.MMM but can't recall what the other is.) Anyway - is there a way to show it as 45 ##.####. Thanks, Zigzag3
  6. Sadly, my technical abilities only allow me to enable the VCR to blink the actual time. Would someone be so kind as to post detailed step-by-step instructions for making this work on an IPAQ? And I do mean detailed (i.e., #1 Turn on computer). I have Avantgo on the IPAQ - though I am clueless as to how to use it/configure it.
