so i found a corner marker to my property then used a plot map and gps to make a track that goes around the perimiter of my property, i was wondering if there was a way i could connect these waypoints with lines and add them to my map that way i wouldn't have to go to the tracks menu to view this. any advice besides buying $350 software or is it un-doable? thanks in advance -shaun

by the way (the NE USA part 3) has public land shaded so you don't end up off course and on someone's private land.

the question was how do i export the maps i already had on mapsource to my garminmap60csx?

i figured it out... after 8 hrs of talking on the forums, deleting and re-installing all the programs, and downloading the trial version of global mapper(which would make anyone happy to pay $250+ and be done with it after reading all the work involved in creating a map like the NE USA part 3), then going to bed at 7 am and thinking about it overnight i woke up and got back to it.(i'm currently layed off)

all i was missing was to hit the yellow triangle looking thing at the top of the screen on mapsource to turn my cursor into a selector to select the quadrants of my topo map i wanted to eport onto my 60csx. once i figured this simple step out, it took me only 3 minutes to download what had been taking me hours! hope this helps future newbies like me, i would have LOVED to had been told this... -shaun

two members of your site told me that they were able to download "NE USA part 3" onto their gps devices, and one of the guys has the same garminmap 60csx that i have.

this map shows ohio with parts of 3 other states as well, topo, cities, rivers, lakes, ponds, AND state owned land shaded in green.one of you has to know something about how to do this, something i'm forgetting... ???

so i have the ohio map, and i have the NE usu part 3 map that includes a couple other states but more importantly shows state gameland borders. so are you saying i should delete the simple ohio map? it say i need a 25 or 8 digit unlock code when i go to utilities, then to manage map product. thanks for the help in advance -shaun

there has got to be a better/cheaper way than using globalmapper or mapwel to find the boundaries of state game land and mark them on your gps... anyone have any ideas, or have any good info. on how you do this yourself?? thanks in advance -shaun

hey michael, i was just wondering about the different maps. i downloaded the ohio map, and am in the process of downloading ohio and all the states around me. will this new map overwrite or take the place of my old map? and what if this whole new map of like 5 different states doesn't fit on my 60csx? will i be able to select certain portions to include more detail of those areas? thanks for the help in advance ??? -shaun
