Use Garmin's link with www instead of www8: http://www.garmin.com/software/Montana_402Beta.exe Hans

Yes, you can use that GPX version (which actually is just an enhanced V1.0). But Garmin's firmware does not support attributes. So you will not see the attributes on your unit. Frohes Jagen Hans

Doch, das Gerät weiß sehr wohl welche Caches gefunden wurden, denn deren Fund-Flags stehen in einer internen (dem Explorer und somit dem User nicht zugänglichen) Datenbank. Diese DB wird erst durch das neuerliche Parsen eines GPX-Files gelöscht und dann neu aufgesetzt. Frohes Jagen Hans

OSM maps are third party garmin vector maps and NOT Garmin CustomMaps.

Das GPSMap 60S kann GPX-Dateien gar nicht verarbeiten. Caches können nur mit externer Software auf das genannte Gerät gebracht werden. Meint der OP möglicherweise doch ein anderes Gerät? FJ Hans

Das Found-Flag setzen die neuen Garmins in einer internen Datenbank, die (Gott sei Dank) nicht vom User zu manipulieren ist. Das Original-GPX wird beim Fund-Loggen nicht geändert. NB: Radioscouts Tip geht nur bei 60ern. Die 62er arbeiten völlig anders. Das hat er wohl nur noch nicht mitbekommen. ;-)

Open the filter window (Ctrl-F). Klick on the "Where" tab. Insert the following code: not(LastFoundDate > Date("now","localtime",'-365 days')) Hit "Go" The result will be a subset of all caches with no found logs within the last year. This method has a prerequisite: You must have all last year's logs in your database. HTH Hans

There is not such export function for BaseCamp. If you are using GDB export the result (showing as waypoints) is expected. BaseCamp needs GPX files (V1.0) for showing caches correctly. Hans

In Settings > Geocaching > Set Filters you can set a filter for cache types (which is nearly pretty the same than a symbol search). Hans

Yes, from the map page > hit the tripple line icon (sub menu) > choose setup map > advanced setup > zoom levels > user waypoints: set this to a higher value (say 2 mi). Frohes jagen Hans

Could you briefly explain what this means in relation to the comma problem to folks like me who aren't code nerds? Thank you. That means that Field Notes code other than that are not detected from the Garmin unit. For more technical infos on UTF: please check wikipedia Hans

Garmin's Field Notes has to be UTF-16 coded.

The sat bars are using the highlight color. You have to set it accordingly. Main Menu > Setup > Appearance > Day Highlight Color (and Night Highlight Color) HTH Hans

Shame on you not reading the manual. What you're searching for is printed in plain english on page 26. Dang. Frohes Jagen Hans

The cache pages are using DDD° MM.MMM' format.

4. Keyword 5. Attributes

I've mentioned that as well. If we know how Garmin is called that icon in it's firmware, we possibly could get rid of it with a Custom Symbol. Happy Hunting Hans

You'd better create 4 PQs with radius 11 and slice it by time. Area based PQs always will overflow at a future time with the necessary of being adjusted from time to time. Time based PQs are kind of sticky. Frohes Jagen Hans

NZ Opengps maps are NOT »Custom Maps« but Garmin maps. They should be installed as their website says: Frohes Jagen Hans

Have you set the track to "Show on map" within the track manager? Hans

#fail The OP wants to change the bearing/goto line. Short answer: It's impossible to change the goto line colour. Frohes Jagen Hans
