How do I see and edit my waypoints, routes and tracklogs in another program?
MacGPS Pro saves waypoint, route and tracklog files in a tab-delimited text format, which you can open in any spreadsheet such as Excel or Appleworks. It can also save files in GPX format which can be opened by almost all other GPS programs, including Windows programs. You may then edit the list and save it again as a text file or a GPX file which you can then read back into MacGPS Pro. If you wish to completely replace the waypoints on your Garmin GPS receiver with your edited list, you must erase all of the waypoints on the receiver using the controls on the GPS receiver itself, then transfer back in the ones you had edited on the Mac. Garmin does not offer any way for an external software program to erase waypoints stored inside the unit. Transferred waypoints are either added to the receiver, or replace those waypoints of the same name.
