    Thank you for the ever so fast reply, Kenta2! However, I was thinking that the maps I posted had already been unlocked and were set to go with enhanced pedestrian mode (and public transport data) based on what I had read in the thread. Are you advising me that NONE of the Amsterdam city explorer maps are unlocked for EPM and public transport? I could swear I read on the posts in that thread that they had been unlocked? I appreciate you assisting this GPS new comer. I have no clue how to use the PID or FID 2. Too, I've tried to understand those key generators and am not having much luck with that. Thank you very much. Also, I have to admit and add at this point, I don't know where to find this PID tool or the FID2 tool, or the key generator. Maybe I am just reading too fast or just too tired from all the trying. Maybe tomorrow "my game" will be a bit more on. In the meantime, any help would be appreciated.

    Update: I now have found what the Jet Mouse is and have it! Not sure how to use it as I see conflicting data for get the CX for Amsterdam to work. I now know what FID stands for: Family ID! However, is the family ID 800 or is it 2419? I "assume" (never a good thing to do....but oh well) that the other fields remains static in the Custom Mapset fields....that is, PID remains 1; RgnID remains 0; and VenId remains 0.

    So, I stick that long number generated for map unlock code in notepad and name it something AmsterdamCXSW.unl and place it in the Garmin folder on the SD chip. That's as far as muddled it up.

    And it still won't show public transport. I am stumped. Sorry to be so needy.....but I'm old military who grew used to the one order followed another and I knew all the code words and initials and what they stood for. At least I know what FID is all about. But it would nice to be able to figure out how to get the public transport to show: That area is still "chisled out" grey stating "enabled" but ain't nothing enabled about it all. I know it's me.....but ......help?! Thanks
