I am so new to this game that my comments may not apply to anything other than a thought to me. I went to each of the waypoints listed, well almost all of them, and found all of the ones I looked at to be "archived" I don't know if that plays into the discussion, just something I saw. I have no other use for the datafile except to down load to my GPS the waypoints that I am looking for. Thanks for listening to a newbie.
