It appears that the Route Editor doe snot like marker files above a certain size. What that limit is, I have no idea; but I know a 4.85 MB file crashes the RE and a 2.? MB file doesn't.Anyone else have any experience in this? Any other ideas as to the limit?Lawrence

I have never had any experience with a marker file that size. Is there any way you could write a .bat file script or use Excel to thin your file? Maybe you could create a new file with every other marker from your original file as a work around.
