  1. I'll try both techniques and get back to this post as to how they work. To be honest, I have tried a PQ before and it did not produce a file for me in the end. It seemed like I was in the queue the entire time. Thank you again for the ideas. I'll let you know what happened. Cheers!
  2. Near the bottom of the search results page, there is a section entitled "Waypoint Downloads." On the right side, there is a "Check All" button. Click on that button, then click on the "Download Waypoints" button immediately below it. This will generate a single .gpx file that includes information for all the caches that met your search requirements. You can send this .gpx file to your GPSr. That will only download the caches on the page (20) and they are loc files, cache number GC**** and coordinates only. Pocket Queries are the way to get GPX files, which contain all the page information. Markwell's guide to Pocket Queries > http://www.markwell.us/pq.htm Exactly...so...got any ideas as to how to extract multiple GPX files at once? ;-) I looked at the source code, but am still trying to figure something one. Thanks for the clarification!

The issue with that is the final filetype is a LOC file which is not the same as downloading all the GPX files separately as noted here: LOC - The original download format for the search results page on Geocaching.com. This contains only the most basic data. GPX (GPS eXchange Format) - Available for Pocket Queries, a Premium Member feature on the web site. The GPX file format has specific geocaching information that can be used by supporting applications. Considering we can download GPX files separately by clicking on each icon and download them all in a LOC file with one button, I was hoping there would be a button to download them all as GPX files with one button. Having the extra information a GPX file has is always nice.
  4. First-time poster here. I don't think the original question was answered as I have the same exact one. I think what the OP was trying to figure out is if there is a way to click one button, a basic process, or another tool that will allow you to send more than one .gpx file at the same time directly to his device. Having upgraded to a Premium member hoping this was a capability and still finding myself having to click on each "Send to GPS" icon for every geocache, it seems odd that we cannot select all the geocaches on the page using the button in the top left of the search results and then send them ALL to our GPS. Anyone have any insights on how to send multiple .gpx files directly to your GPS from a search results page without clicking on each one? Any help would be appreciated.
