Has anyone managed to open the satnav files embedded in the Word document? Mine says the files are corrupt!

I've got my email but not the ticketes yet. I had a same problem with the satnav files on my Mac, but I dont think they will work on the TomTom app on the iPhone anyway. I'll have a play arond with the app to see if I can programe the route, if I can I'll post it up for anyone who uses TomTom on the iPhone

I know this is a bit dumb, but how do you download them into a satnav?

I've just finished programing my iPhone TomTom with the coordinates from the info Brian sent. Hopefully it should work :?:

Connect your sat nav to your PC using the cable or dock provided with your device. Open each route that Brian sent that will open a program called tyre. You may have to download the software, I already had tyre on my PC but it's free to download. Once the route is opened in tyre you hit the button to download to sat nav and that's it. It will be loaded into your device as an itinerary. I loaded 11 itinerarie. Hope that makes sence.

I have printed the routes out (don't trust these new fangled contraptions), but will attempt to download onto my satnav.

No need for sat nav. When I go on any DDk drive I just follow the yellow 2.4S in front.

Tyre is for PC's only doesn't support Mac :( or iPhone app :cry: but it got me out of watching some chick flick typing all the coordinates in :P
