wow, thanks. I'll have to give it a try.

loc files are only one cache at a time, right?

It didn't seem to like a .gpx (pocket query) file I tried.

.loc files can have any amount of cache

If you use gpsbabel to convert just about any poi to gpx then

will also import to mapper. Along with a lot of other functionality.

Hey guys, does this work on a Mac?

I have not tried it yet, but I wanted to know before I downloaded it.

Thanks.

Ah, ok. Thanks. Garmin recently released a POI app for the Mac.

I updated the application and now is pulling the description of the cache too. In the poi.db you'll have the title, the coordinates and the long description.
the address of the application is same old http://ioanghip.googlepages.com/wingeo.htm
