Hi John,
The format is compatible with Oziexplorer.
Cheers

thanks for that alan. but unfortunately that didnt work either. but saying that, i only downloaded the free version. but it should still read a map?
i guess i'll stick to doing it long hand. no worries.

Hello - the two free versions of OziExplorer have limitations. These are listed on the website - in summary these are:
The Shareware/Demo version does allow full communication with the GPS for upload/download and moving map. BUT It only allows maps in BMP image format to be loaded and only loads maps in WGS84 datum
The Trial Version has almost all the features of the full version (works with all supported image formats and datums) BUT there is no communication with the GPS for upload/download and no saving or loading of Waypoints, Events, Tracks etc.
What format is the map supplied with the plot swap file?
Cheers
Greg
