Hi Paul I'm sorry but that's a new one on me. You see, I didn't have to load any map for Dallas. It was already on there somehow. I think you had to load any maps like on say the StreetTalk version of the Sendero software. When I did it, I think I had to choose my mode, and it started automatically. When I get a chance I'll do some experimentation here and see if I can figure it out.
