About TntWare
Microsoft discontinued both Streets & Trips as well as MapPoint on 12/31/14. www.microsoft.com/.../MapPoint-alt.aspx
I tried to follow MarkDavis' instructions above but seemed to miss something: I exported TNTMPD data (name, lat, long) into a csv, but POIEdit would not read it without errors.
2 questions:
1) has anyone found a way to use Bing Maps, Google Maps or some other updating mapping system to associate TNTMPD contacts with actual street addresses on a map?
2) Can you supply me with the missing steps needed to use POIEdit?
POIEdit works great for probably any GPS if you want to do just a tiny bit of work.
I just used TntMPDs “mapping details” export to Excel capability to create an Excel spreadsheet of all of my MI supporters with their Lat. and Long. coordinates. I then saved it as a CSV and imported into POIEdit. I then used POIEdit to convert it to a TomTom POI DB and copied it to my Tomtom. I now have all of my Michigan supporters in my Tomtom by name and can get directions to any of their homes on my GPS!
I'll have to update TntMPD to support this newer version of MS Streets and Trips. For now, the only solution is probably to install an older version of it (2011).

I've upgraded to MS Streets & Trips 2013... The "Export to Microsoft Streets and Trips" has disapeared. Is there something I need to do to get it back?
I am all set, I did not have MS Streets & Trips installed on that computer. Once installed I could see the export under Group Actions. Thanks - looking forward to using for our summer trip!!
@Steve, What version of MS Streets and Trips do you have installed?
Did you delete this option? I have 2.1 r81 & do not see the option to go to export to street & maps under group actions.
Maybe, Sus. Although I found the Streets & Trips route pretty easy.
Would PoiEdit be a good option (www.poiedit.com/compatibility.htm)? It works with Google Earth and with Excel instead of being tied into software like Streets & Trips.
PoiEdit asks for a donation.
Yes, it works with the Trial edition of Streets & Trips 2011. Hate to mention it, but that's what I've been working with all summer. Most of our support trips don't last more than 60 days, so we might never actually buy it! I'm sure next year I'll update TntMPD to work with the 2012 edition as well...
Will it work with the Streets and Trips 2011 60 day trial edition?
Sounds great! Can it be done w/o purchasing Msoft Streets & Tips for $25?
