How do I remove custom locations from my Garmin GPS?

POI data was to replace it with another file.

Hi,

Make sure you have the utility poiloader, available from the Garmin site http://www.poi-factory.com/tools/garmin/poi-loader. There's also a good tutorial at http://www.poi-factory.com/node/85

Right now, there looks like there are 1,160 different restaurants with reviews.

By the way, I did it for my GPS and I love it!

I'm thinking of joining insider but I would really like some idea of how many locations are in the files for GPS.

Thanks
