+Hunt Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I just downloaded it and love it it saves alot of time but when you download waypoints they are each there own file. is there a way to put multiple waypoints in the same file so i dont have to have 500 different EasyGPS files lying around spaming my computer Quote Link to comment
+donbadabon Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Yes you can. 1. If you are viewing the individual cache page, and click on "Download Waypoint File", you will get 1 cache per file. THis may be what you are currently doing. 2. If you do a search, say by ZIP Code, then you will see a little empty box to the right of each cache listing. Just click the boxes of the ones you want, and then click on "Download Waypoints". This will save multiple caches per file. 3. If you are a paying member, you can use the "Pocket Query Generator" available from the "My Cache Page" link. This is the best option, since you can generate files based on multiple conditions, such as distance from you, only ones that are active, only ones that have Travel Bugs, etc. Hope this helps.

+Huga Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Alternatively, EasyMPS (A program I've written, available from www.iancowley.co.uk/caching will import a whole bunch of LOC, GPX and MPS files, and export them as a single LOC, GPX or MPS file. It'll also modify waypoints if you want, but for the basic functionality you're after, it'll do fine (MPS is A Garmin Mapsource file, BTW) Quote Link to comment
+javamutt Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 Another similar utility is gps babel. .http://gpsbabel.sourceforge.net/ Allows input and output of more formats than I knerw existed as well as catenation of multiple input streams. Very simple, very cool. Quote Link to comment
+gnbrotz Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 You can also open multiple .loc files and drag/drop waypoints between them. Put them all together and throw out the smaller ones. Quote Link to comment
gm100guy Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 (edited) You can use geobuddy and merge easygps file and then save them as one also. geobuddy Edited November 26, 2003 by gm100guy Quote Link to comment

Open the waypoint file(s) in EasyGPS. 2. Choose which one to make the "all in one" file or create a new "all in one" file. 3. On the EasyGPS menu click Window, then click Tile. 4. Drag and Drop the waypoints to the "all in one" file. 5. Save your work. I have a file Do.gpx and a file Found.gpx. I make comments as I need to when I transfer a waypoint from Do to Found. I also make smaller temporary files for day trips, such as a day on the coast so I don't have to sort through all of them when transferring them to Found. Russ Quote Link to comment
