1. Attach your phone with the USB
2. Open Mapsource
3. Select the "route tool" (icon of three squares connected with lines)
4. Create a short route by right-click on a location and choose "Begin route"
5. Then choose another location by right-click and choose "Add to route"
6. Highlight the route in the panel on the left side of map
7. Go to the Transfer menu and choose Send to device
8. Unless you've selected any maps, tracks or waypoints the only option should be "Routes"
9. Click send and you're done.
This is a worthless way of creating routes in devices
Any settings in the mapsource software (average speeds, road preference etc) will be discarded upon transfer to the device.
You do need to have your routable map installed to do routing. The basemap does not support it.

@iffis76, you may also transfer your routes and favorites between garmin pc and xt via a "current.gpx" file (without mapsource). on PC, this file is in the " #:\Documents and Settings\<YOUR_USERNAME>\Application Data\Garmin\GarminMobilePC\gpx\" folder. it's renewed automatically upon closing the garminpc (if routes, points etc. were added/changed). to transfer pc routes to phone you copy pc's "current.gpx" to "#:\garmin\gpx\". then open garminxt - <tools> <manage my data> <manage (left soft key)> <import gpx>. that's it! to transfer from phone, you have to <export gpx> (same menu) first, i.e. update "current.gpx" manually.
