Pocket Quiery Problem

[+kcseagull]

When I run the pocket query, it come back in kilometers and I cannot get it go compute as miles. What should I do?

What program are you using to view your Pocket Query?

 

In EasyGPS, there's an option for viewing by metric rather than standard. It's under the File menu. Look for Preferences and then Units of Measure.

What program are you using to deal with your PQ's?

 

If you are using GSAK, go to Tools=>Options=>General Tab=>Distance Calculations = miles.

I don't know of any program by that name.

 

Here is a link to several programs that are used to read pocket queries. Is the program you're using listed here?

It is pocket queries for Premium members.

Yes, but that gives you a file. What software do you use to open it and view the caches?

I'm going to give this one more shot.

 

Here's another possibility.

 

Go to your account page and click on edit profile.

 

About half way down the page you'll see an option for "preferred units." Make sure you've got "Imperial" chosen rather than "Metric."

 

You'll also need to enter your password at the top of the pages, then scroll down and click the "Update Account" button.

 

If that doesn't fix it, I'll move this thread to an area where you can get some better help.

Your one more shot got the job done. I thank you very much. How it got changed is beyond my knowledge but strange things happen with these computers and programs ever now and then.

Thanks again for your nice help.
