 Q How do I import a GPS track or other GPX data into Streets & Trips, Autoroute or Mappoint?\r

 A First you need to have the data in GPX format - see GPSBabel for that.\r

   Be sure to backup this file! Then the command is:\r

+Q What is a template map, and how do I get one?\r
+\r
+A A template map is basically an empty map for your version of Streets & Trips, Autoroute or Mappoint, \r
+  which has been formatted for pushpins. )st2gpx cant import data into a map file unless it is formatted\r
+  for pushpins.) You can create one by starting with a new map (file\new) in Streets & Trips, Autoroute \r
+  or Mappoint. Create a single pushpin, then delete the pushpin again (this formats the map structure for \r
+  pushpins). Then save this file with a name like mappoint_2003_USA_template.ptm.\r

 Q I would like to get the driving instructions, and detailed route, but st2gpx only saves the start/end and stops.\r
 \r
 A Unfortunately, the driving instructions are not saved in the file. You can add extra stops after the route \r
   is calculated, or you can draw/trace a poly-line along the route calculated by Streets & Trips/Autoroute/Mappoint.\r
   This is exported as a track (or optionally a route), and can then be loaded to your GPS receiver \r
-  using the correct software. I use an older Garmin GPS12 and loading a track this way works very well.\r
