Import Coordinates/Excel data

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA when I click on 'Add', it simply wants me to re-import the file - it does not add it to the route map.
@GT-JWR use the 3 bar menu (top left side) to display points of interest.

@RetiredWingMan I did...see this image above.
Clicking on 'Add' does nothing except wanting to re-import the file - absolutely no coordinates from that file get added to the map I am wanting to add them to.
Something's missing? -

Something's missing?@GT-JWR when you go back to the map your POIs should appear. You may have to zoom in a bit for them to appear.

hi @GT-JWR
i have just used the top co-ordinate that you put in the screen shot
29.812298226572583, -95.7728516190678and this was the rsult when i added it as a POI, obviously the blue square, i just named it test for a sample.
so this seems to work for me.
to achieve, we must first attempt ✌️

@paul69 @RetiredWingMan - appreciate the advice.
Perhaps I need to clarify, to make sure I understand what takes place vs what is supposed to take place.
If I have a *.csv file, that has 20 coordinates it it, for example, what are the steps? My understanding of what should happen:
- click on POI, which opens 3 options.... Search, Manage & Library.
- go to Library, click on Add...select the *.csv file, and it imports
- place a check in the box, and ALL coordinates in that file should now show on the map.
Is this correct?
None of the coordinates show up, even when zoomed in.
According to the Manual in loading POI's, it should work.

hi @GT-JWR
apologies but I am unable to help any further, I do not normally use this function, I only tried it to see if it worked for me.
somebody with a lot more experience than I will be along to help you, of that, I am sure.

@GT-JWR as you can see in the screen shot below, I added a POI list of distilleries in Scotland. When I zoom in sufficiently, they appear on the planning map. The only thing I can think of is that your file of POIs does not include all of the data required to properly create the POIs. You did not replicate the example in June of the first responses. Your missing a name for the POI as well as a trailing text field.

@RetiredWingMan I will input names and see if that brings me success! Thanks.

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA I did that - the link opens MRA directly, and all POI's are there.
So then out of curiousity, I went to the 'Files' on that FB page, found this file, Afsluitingen_NLD_20220118.csv, and when saving to my PC, noticed it was a 'CSV UTF-8' file. Thinking this might have something to do with the issue I'm having, I also saved it as a simple '*,CSV' file.
Then added both to my POI list, both opened up and showed as expected.
Perhaps I have something wrong with the file I am trying to load?
...tried to copy file here, saying I don't have enough privelages...will try to copy in a 2nd reply.

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA ...well, appears I cannot attach the file...
