steven,

many thanks! for your prompt response & valuable advise. tried the link and everything is working fine now.
tomtom technical assisstance must say should hang their head in shame as they advised me incorrectly that my pda HP 3970 with windows version 2002 was incompatible with TT nav 5.

thanks indeed!
