Garmin etrex Venture HC

In the past few days, each time I select "Find," then either "Waypoints" or "Geocaches," the online keyboard pops up at the bottom of the screen. I can get it off easily, but it's annoying. Can't find any info about that in the owner's manual. Any ideas? Thanks

I've got a Venture too. From what you're describing you have the Find set to "by name" rather than the usual "closest".

 

From the "waypoints" or "geocaches" screen press the "menu" button (bottom left) and change it back to "closest".

 

Cheers

Well, THAT was easy. I must have somehow accidentally pushed a wrong button out in the desert last weekend or something. Now it works just fine. Thank you!
