| Posted by cdmann POI downloading problem :oops: Hi, when I download any of the POI's for some reason the are in PHP format and have the "word pad" icon. I can open them and save them as an excel.csv file, but the POI loader tells me it is an invalid format. any help gratefully recieved for a new man to this stuff! thanks :cry: |
| Posted by n_albrechtsen poi download problem This is probably because your computer has been set to recoginise the poi files and use wordpad as the default opener. You need to go to file associations and change the program from wordpad to mapsourse. |
| Posted by BoulevardOnTour Save As NOT Open With After clicking on the file you wish to download, always select save as When downloading it says I can open files with Photoshop... hehe but choosing Save As will save the file as it is called - don't change anything or give it an extension I use XP and firefox |
| Posted by funkyfreshjon Change open file program You can also change to file extension but right clicking on the file > properties > open with>change then pick if any program you like |
