With MultiCalc running it's not possible to get to the Today screen. Choosing Start|Today takes you to the MultiCalc window but with "Today" in the title bar and the menu bar of the Today screen. Ah hadn't noticed that. I just click in the X at the top right. It minimised the app. I'll see if I can fix it but I'm not sure how! That's useful to know - thanks. It may make them more difficult to read, though. You asked for them in 1 field! That would be good. Thanks. I'll post when I've done it but it may take a couple of days as I'm a bit busy. Nope! For some reason the listbox I'm using doesn't support double tap in the .net compact framework. Simon

?? Don't understand, how is it "Grabbing" the Today screen? I thought about this but there is no way I can identify if "N", "S", "E", or "W" is a direction or a letter to be translated. x is and x and * is a *, what can I say! Again I can't tell if what you type in should be translated or used as a symbol. The fields are not restricted in length and not required either. If you want to only used one of them you can do. Multicalc runs on the PC if you want it to. do the copy/paste of coordinates from there and then you can save the xml file onto your pda. I could probably create something that reads csv and outputs multicalc xml but not sure what fields you would need. Name, Lat, Long I guess for a simple file. I don't know enough about GSAK but are you sure it can't output the xml. It's not particularly complicated. Fair point. I could add an open dialog. Simon

New version (2.0.1) will be online tonight. It allows 4 digits per letter. If there is more than 2 digits in the letter field the label turns red to let you know there are digits that may not be visible. Please wait until after 18:00 GMT because it won't be uploaded before then! Simon

Necro bump! I'm glad people are still using it. I'll dig out the source code tonight to sort out the problem if the numbers are above 99. I think I'll go with 4 digits then years become usable. You'll have to scroll the little boxes though as I don't think they will fit if they are each 4 chars wide! Simon

There is always this cache though the counting can be tricky. Simon

Just so long as one of them isn't the BOfH - anybody for "haqre n uvtu ibygntr ryrpgebqr" ? Ohhh there's an idea - ponders a series of BOfH caches..... 5/5s probably.... If the clue says "Enter the lift" I'm not doing it! Simon

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/01/26/bofh_episode_3/ Careful where the clues lead you. Simon

Maybe you should have said Ashford Kent... I pop down to Ashford every now and again to see my parents on a weekend. Not much time for caching though Simon

Mini no 7 is my bag, not a jacket! Buttocks no 2 is me in the pouring rain, the things we do! Simon

Depending on the dates I would be interested in this. Simon

Looks good, don't know what it should render like! not got firefox on this computer! slightly wonky lat/long boxes and button but not too bad! Simon

Just under the following code, define the message variable. var locked =0 ; var latlon; var message; function onLoad() { .... Not having registered the API I can't go further than that but it gets past the first js error! Simon

I met a cache owner whilst looking for their cache. I surprised her as she was just putting it back. Still got FTF on it! Simon

You would think after 8 months they would have found a cache big enough to drop This green jeep into. Simon

Oh, yes please! I'll mail you. Simon

Trying to get PQ's runing today and not getting anywhere. Even the My finds one hasn't run. Created a new one and it still didn't work. Simon

Same as the other thread! Simon

Go on to their tb pages enter the number, choose the grab option. You then have them in your inventry. Then just drop them into the cache you found them in. You can pick them up as normal and move them on. Simon

Erm, you don't need the number to drop a tb, only to pick on up. Just add a note to the cache you dropped it in and click on the jeep in the list at the bottom of the write note page. [edit]Just noticed you didn't pick it up in the first place. Just wait 'till the next person grabs it off you or post a note on the cache page to remind them to do it.[/edit] Simon

Make sure you check the coin to make sure it is for collectors. If it says something like "trackable on geocaching.com" then it's not collectable. Let us know what cache it was and maybe a pic of the coin?? Good luck Simon

Any red jeeps in the Phoenix area that I can discover??? I'm over there on holiday this/next week. Also any unmissable caches that I need to know about? Do you guys use topo maps on a PDA? Somthing like the Memory map one that I use in the UK? Oh, and you can keep Becks and his wife, do you know how long it took to get rid of them? Oh and if you have any TB's that fancy visiting the UK, let me know. Simon

Your PDA/GPS probably doesn't have an in built compass unlike your Etrex, so it only know which direction you are facing if you are moving above a certain speed. Simon

If you fancy another little program for the PPC to help with Multi caches, there is this: Multicalc One for the palm as well: Palm Coordinate Simon

Also in the title bar (of ie7) the cache code is GCXXX then the description. Anyone else notice there is a new error on the pages. "Uncaught exception"? Simon

Right it's been in BETA long enough. New version only has the text in the title bar changed from the BETA 4 version so download it if you want! I hope it works for all you guys and I hope you enjoy it. Link is in my sig. Simon
