nice one russel m8.ian.

one thing i dont understand though m8 is that this version is 804 and the last one i had was 901,surely a higher number is a later version?

also this file was smaller too which suggests less postcodes in it?

[Russell1]

It looks like they have started to number the postcode versions to correspond with the map version number as the latest maps are v840.****. Also in the past the file sizes have varied - sometimes bigger & sometimes smaller.

hi russ where do you put this file cant find any old files on my tomtom looked in uk maps and rest of files,thanks..ken

[ian]

have you had 7 digit postcodes before?

if so you will find a folder called Zip,this new file just goes in there.
if you have not used them before then you will have to add a folder called Zip and then place the postcode file into it.ian.

not had 7 digit before,cant find the zip folder,do i create one in the uk maps or straight on drive thanks..ken

on the drive m8 and then place the postcode file inside of it.ian.

[Russell1]

When you open the downloaded zip file you should then have folder named ' zip ' with the 2 postcode files in it. Copy this folder straight onto the root of your Tomtom.

No - postcode files only available for UK & Netherlands.
