+Frank22 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I save the various caches in the GPS62. When I upload the field notes to the geocaching website it shows 0 field notes. In notepad, the geocaching name is there not the GC code. In the setup somewhere is the GC code setting. How do I make the change? I have taken some field notes from a friend and pasted them into the field note file in notepad. These ones come in fine. Regards Frank22 Quote Link to comment
+The A-Team Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I save the various caches in the GPS62. How do you transfer caches to your GPS? It's probably the tool you're using to do this that's changing the waypoint name. Quote Link to comment
+Frank22 Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 I use expert gps to load the information into the gps.The geocaches are in by the geocache name which is how I use them during the search. Regards Frank22 Quote Link to comment
+Lil Devil Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The geocaches are in by the geocache name which is how I use them during the search. As you've seen, that method of downloading is incompatible with Field Notes. In order for Field Notes to work, the GC Code must be the key field. However that doesn't mean you have to view the GC Codes on the 62s. Select Menu >> Menu >> Setup >> Geocaches >> Appearance >> Geocache List >> Show Names. Quote Link to comment
