Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Just wondering.................
That makes sense...I was remembering that you had to load everything at
one time (it replaces; doesn't increment) when transferring the maps
over. Guess I didn't realize the option was there in the map screen
because I've only ever had one mapset loaded. Now that I know it's
possible, I'll give it a try. I hate banging my head against the wall
trying to do something when it's not even possible (which has happened
to me on more occasions than I care to count...not with the GPS, but
with software stuff at work).

Thanks!
