If you use Microsoft Streets and Trips you should look at Truck Stops Plus for a very handy and useful add in. I have it and really like it for planning fuel stops along my route.

Leo,
Thanks for that. It led me to other info I needed. The file can be shared between computers if you have a team who uses different laptops.
The only problem is;
it uses pushpins which can be moved
and I didn't see rv dump sites on the list or did I miss that? (that is for the RVing expediters)
I wish that MS would allow things to be added to the POI database, it would make life a lot easier.

I don't know about dump sites. It also has all the super walmarts, rest areas, weigh stations and a few other things so it's pretty useful for trip planning. I have never had a problem with anything moving but that's not to say it can't happen. Overall I'm pleased I got it.

Moose that's a new one.
The bundled GPS receiver should show up in your manage system/device list.
Well first try this.....
VisualGPS™ to see if it picks the GPS unit up, then try S&T to see what is going on. This software is pretty neat and is good for troubleshooting GPS receivers.
