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!
