Ok so far I've only used numbers off supermap by punching them in manually into my GPS.

I want to use my computer to upload and download GPS numbers. What's the best way to do that? I don't mind buying software if it's something worth having, and pretty user friendly.

Thanks all...

I use GPSU...
http://www.gpsu.co.uk/

It is very handy and works with jsut about every GPS known to man.

EasyGPS is another one.

More or less you need to be able to work with GPX format files.

So you download the numbers from Supermap....They are in GPX format. You then either uplaod the file to your GPS or convert the GPX file to whatever file format your GPS uses and then upload it to the GPS.
