New Navdata.db3 - 20120701

<< < (5/7) > >>

Bell 407:
Hi Ian,

I see from one of your previous posts that you are a bit apprehensive about using 3rd party utilities to edit your NavData.db3 file. It is for this exact reason that the NavData.db3 Editing Tool was created by my colleague and I specifically for people like you (and me). I am also not IT savvy and so when we produced the Tool that allows you to edit in the comfortable environment of MS Excel, I immediately found myself becoming more adept at making regular updates to my NavData.db3 file.

All I can therefore say is give it a try. Make a copy of your current NavData.db3 file and use that copy in the Tool. If you follow the steps as outlined in the users manual you really can't go wrong. There is much apprehension when you do the recompile for the first time as you believe that somehow the programme will not work. But I have been using it regularly to edit my routes table to do bulk updates etc and it works perfectly every time. Just working in the familiar environment of MS Excel is what gives most users the confidence to edit all tables that make up the NavData.db3 Editing Tool (www.earthimage.co.za/NavDataDB3).

Just shout if you need any help.

Cheers,
