Points of Interest in TLDCN2009

[Chris T.]

Has anyone figured out how to load POI data to TLDCN2009? I have downloaded a dozen or so files with interesting POI data (rest areas, atms, etc.) and I've looked at all options the menus the help file, tutorials. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to load these files.

Can anyone out there give me a pointer?

Chris, you probably can't. I haven't ordered the 2009, so I can't be sure, but I remember contacting TL Member Services when I first bought the 2008 version and was told that they did not support importing and doubted that they would any time soon, so... So, unless they changed their mind in 2009, forget the POIs.

I was thinking of getting the new 2010 (I skipped 2009), but I will probably wait to see what the comments say about it once people start getting it. Just like Windows ( I just moved one of my systems to Vista), I want the dust to settle first - don't like being a guinea pig, if you know what I mean.

Well, that's a bummer. I could have sworn I saw something about Points of Interest on the Trailer Life web site, but I have to go back and take another look. I am not sure of the details. I thought for sure the capability was there and I was doing something wrong.
