I should be a little more specific.  These are the ones for Plan-G in Misty Moorings.

csv files for PlanG are created by manual settings of any point of interest (POI) in the scenery to appear on the PlanG map. This may be cabins/lodges, lighthouses, dams, wind turbines, radio masts, special building, unlisted airstrips and so on.

These cvs must be imported into PlanG.

Here is what to do:

- Start up Plan-G
- Click on "Data"
- Click on "Manage"
"Manage user way points" window appears with "Import" and "Export"  buttons

- Click on "Import"
- Navigate to where you placed the wanted  "xxxx.csv" file
- double click this file
-  A note will appear: "Imported xxx of xxx records"

Normally the imported POI's will now appear on the map. (if not close PlanG and start the software again)

Dr Dieter strikes again. Mate you really are "the fixer" for those of us that struggle with all this new technology..Teecee.
Just wondering Thibben, did you import each individual CVX?
