Hi-Tek

The date format in applications, is usually governed by your PC locale settings, you have to set them all to United Kingdom for your PC to be fully UK compliant, there are 5 places in the Regional and Language Options, to set a PC to UK, and one in the Date and Time settings. Anyway, go through these settings, and you will see that it was your PC up the spout, not the script. My understanding of the 3rd poster was that he didn't want 15/12/2000 and would prefer to see 15 December 2000 instead . The macro as supplied gives the former not the latter. I don't think it has anything to do with his PC settings Edited to corredct the "poster" referred to ....

Lots of "home grown" ones - great fun (and frustrating at times) but when the macro does what you want it is very satisfying.

Hopefully lots of multi & puzzle caches will be affected

Actually Clyde is one of our Australian "cousins" and he is the GSAK developer . He wrote the macro in question. I've adjusted it a bit to get the months shown as you asked. try the following block amendment to the original code - it should be fairly obvious where it goes. # if too many caches, use the previous date If $count > $MaxCaches $ThisPQ = $ThisPQ + 1 $ThisPQStr = Right("00000" + NumToStr($ThisPQ), 2) ###################################################### # The following between the # lines are used to put the month into the html output # ###################################################### $FromDMY=(DateToString($From)) $FromYYYY=Left($FromDMY,4) $FromMM=Extract("Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec",",",Val(Substr($FromDMY,5,2))) $FromDD=Right($FromDMY,2) $FromDate=$FromDD+" "+$FromMM+" "+$FromYYYY $ToDMY=(DateToString($gdate)) $ToYYYY=Left($ToDMY,4) $ToMM=Extract("Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec",",",Val(Substr($ToDMY,5,2))) $ToDD=Right($ToDMY,2) $ToDate=$ToDD+" "+$ToMM+" "+$ToYYYY ####################################################### # The following line has been amended to use the $FromDate & $ToDate variables. # ####################################################### $out = $out + "<tr class=row><td>" + $ThisPQStr + "</td><td>" + $FromDate + "</td><td>" + $Todate + "</td><td> $gtotal</td>" + "<td>$tick</td></tr>" + $_NewLine $from = $gdate + 1 $count = $count - $gtotal EndIf Goto position=Next EndWhile ###################################################### # The following between the # lines are used to put the month into the html output # # for the last entry # ###################################################### $FromDMY=(DateToString($From)) $FromYYYY=Left($FromDMY,4) $FromMM=Extract("Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec",",",Val(Substr($FromDMY,5,2))) $FromDD=Right($FromDMY,2) $FromDate=$FromDD+" "+$FromMM+" "+$FromYYYY ###################################################### # generate last from and to if total recs not a multiple of $maxCaches If $count > 0 $ThisPQ = $ThisPQ + 1 $ThisPQStr = Right("00000" + NumToStr($ThisPQ), 2) #################################################### # The following line has been amended to use the $FromDate variable. # #################################################### $out = $out + "<tr class=row><td>" + $ThisPQStr + "</td><td>" + $FromDate + "</td><td>Maximum date</td><td>$count</td>" + "<td>$tick</td></tr>" + $_NewLine EndIf I've no doubt that are many other ways to achieve the same end which are likely to be more efficient but I'm no code monkey I'm afraid and as best I can tell "it works"

Great news - Jeremy did say he was looking at this problem some time ago and it seems he's been as good as his word. Well done Jeremy Nothing wrong with AWs as long as they aren't the same as the main cache co-ords. It's been said before but "additional" means "additional" - not the "same as" the cache co-ords and Groundspeak seem to agree that this is how they perceive it.

Sounds like a competition idea for me, so step right up all you budding artists! Best design gets featured on an Aussie cache page for an undetermined length of time... My offering:

You could scan them and add the images to the cache web page for a historical record.

Not when Cryptik's bandwidth is being used - they may have a monthly limit

Having scrolled to the bottom I must say an excellent response.

Provided you have already changed the cache status to archived here's a piece of code from a macro I have that does something similar to what I believe you are asking: MACROFLAG type=clear range=all # Set Macroflag for all "found" caches MFILTER IF=$d_found MACROFLAG type=set range=filter # Set Macroflag for caches that are not found, and not archived, and not temp disabled MFILTER IF=.not. ($d_Found .or. $d_Archived .or. $d_TempDisabled) MACROFLAG type=set range=filter # Show in the GSAK grid all found caches (including archived) and available caches. MFILTER IF=$d_MacroFlag HTH

Take a look here. Create the GarminOther.txt file and you should see them under the "Change Symbols" option when sending waypoints to your GPSr.

I use a Kingston 512MB MicroSD card in my 60CSx. I bought it from My Memory (currently selling for £10.99) - this card has performed flawlessly thus far. They also have a 1Gb Kingston MicroSD for £17.99.

Well said that man

See how all those definitions, although subtly different, mean there's something extra, something more, something you've not got already. So why to cache owners see fit to put another copy of the main coordinates of caches in the additional waypoints? "Ah," I hear you cry, "it's only one or two.... " Well, the survery said.... I checked, there are 428 additional waypoints on active UK caches with EXACTLY the same coordinates as the main ones. I particularly enjoyed a set of parking coordinates with the comment: What's the point? Exactly my sentiments! (BTW I brought this subject up several months ago.)

I didn't have time to attempt some of the "complicated" ones that need code books/encyclopaedias/maths degrees etc. so I was thankfull for the Trads, Simple Multi's & the Motorway Mayhem ones - nice and not tooooo taxing after a 'hard' days work in the area.

A couple of things I like about MapSource .... With Mapsource you can see the locations of your waypoints on the maps and select those which you wish to upload to your GPSr - with EasyGPS I don't believe you can. With MapSource you can "categorise" your waypoints. Personally I use GSAK to manipulate/filter caches and then upload them to my GPSr. HTH

The one I use is CacheMate and GSAK has a built in export function for it.

Yes I wholeheartedly agree with your observation Ian. It was not an easy task to avoid the "overlap" between counties and, in the end, I didn't bother - expediency was the order of the day. Any improvement will be most welcome by me! In the meantime I'll have to carry on as I have to date .......

Tonight my thoughts are with Ewan and his family - we've not met but I wish him a speedy and full recovery.

PM sent to Ian with the missing Scottish Borders data. History: I had a personal project that I undertook towards the end of last year. It was to produce County boundaries based on a MM Counties map kindly provided by (Penny & Tigger) and MM1:50000. I did this as I wished to populate the Country & County data in my GSAK database. This took quite a lot of effort and the end result was rather satisfying. My PQ load now automatically filters new caches without Country & State (sic) data and applies the relevant info accordingly. The counties I'd completed at the time (Dec 2005) were passed on to a few folk who expressed an interest in the data. I think the files being "linked to" at the moment are those that I produced and I've passed on all the data including the remaining Scottish ones to Ian for completeness in the hope it might assist him in his project.

Another question, I read some where that the 60CSX can also download directly from geocaching.com with out the files being coverted, by use of another program? just a click and you have them? Not sure quite what you mean here. For info: the latest version of MapSource will load gc.com generated *.gpx files directly. It's then just a matter of sending them to the GPSr. Perhaps this is what you read.

I'm using FF 1.5.0.6 too. The 1st link I quoted works - select the Softpedia Secure Download option (which is the 2nd link I posted) - it works for me. Alternatively you could try http://www.assembler.ca/ and select Toolbar Paint from the side bar.

I use Toolbar Paint to make the custom icons for my 60CSx. Thanks a lot. Downloaded ximage, but it won't let me download the toolbar paint for some reason......... Try this Link

OK... as McKryton doesn't need them and they're only gathering dust on my shelf (oh... I lied... they are 5mm diameter but they're only 4mm long), if anyone wants a few, send me your address in an e-mail or PM and I'll post them on to you. No charge.... but you can make a small charitable donation to a cause of your choice if the mood takes you. Only one condition.... if you turn them into micro / nano caches, you keep them the hell away from my manor!!! Aw John, you know you love 'em really . In my opinion they are better than some of the puzzle/multi's that are now sadly becoming proliferate throughout the game.
