Problems with DIY POI Files

[Jörgen]

Hi,
I can't get the POIs displayed from a self-made POI file.

I generated a CSV file like this:

51.225800,6.615499,"Am Schulzentrum Kaarst","Forum"

Longitude, Latitude, “POI Name”, “Description (optional)”

Made sure that all information is separated by a comma.

I can import the file in MRA, choose a symbol, and when activated, nothing is displayed.

What is wrong?

when I tried it I had to zoom in on the map to see them.

I know this. For control, I activated other POIs, to see the min. zoom factor.

Maybe someone with success, can sent me a csv file for testing.

I have one for Irish Photo Rally waypoints but I don't have enough privileges to upload it here.

@Jörgen, Found it!
You need to swap lat/lon
The POI actually do import, on the other side of the globe...
(actually they don't, they are not valid coordinates)
Try this:

6.615499,51.225800,"Am Schulzentrum Kaarst","Forum"
