Thanks!

I also wanted to add that I read this -

It does depend on the codepage and 'bitsize' of the labels.

So I am looking to find out how to change coding from 6 bit to 8. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, I am new to this forum. I apologize if this has been answered already. I am compiling a a map Of Cyprus out of GIS files for use in my Garmin. I am in the US and about to travel to Cyrus. I built the road files and POI's. The map is compiled and I can zoom to Cyprus. The only issue I am having is typing in a city name without using ALL CAPITALS. I turn off all other GPS maps except the Cyprus GPS map on my device after transferring it from Basecamp. I then use the Where to > Near > Different City = Nicosia. It will not return it. I then used all CAPITALS - Where to > Near > Different City = NICOSIA and it worked! I tried this for many other cities. It is the same! Can anyone tell me why my newer Garmin needs all capitals? Is my data coded wrong before I compile?

I appreciate the help!
