Doesn't matter... I solved it... I think.... until Itronador wrote:Ok I'm now getting very frustrated with the Polygon tool on GSAK. I've used this before to get caches along a set route but now when I try and do the same thing it tells me there are no way points in the file.
What is going wrong???
This is what I've done:
1.I open GSAK and click on tool and go to polygon tool, which opens up the browser and map
2.I select polygon and plot my route, the middle section is all purple.
3. After creating the polygon,I select gpx and click the little button which displays various lat/lon
4. I copy and paste to notepad and save it as a gpx file on my desktop
5. I open GSAK click on the filter and select the polygon arc tool and select the given file which is saved to my desktop, i choose the general tab and select filter out caches I've found.
I select go and then i get a message saying there are no way points in the file.![]()

I know you may think well you've found them all but that is not true. There are caches along the route that I have not found.
What am I doing wrong this time. I've tried using the default data base , an older data base of the same route and also a new data base and i still get nothing.
You could create 3 different data bases for your 3 different sets of waypoints.Renroc wrote:OK I have gsak and have uploaded the my finds file and it has generated the stats. What do I do with it now and how do I get this file to show up on my profile?
Also I have 3 different sets of waypoints in my GPS...
1 Local Schools which I visit in my paid job and family members locations etc (personal junk)
2 Waypoints of spots I visited in UK during a trip
3 Geocaching waypoints.
I have a garmin nuvi 500 and for the second time it is telling me I have too many gpx files and to delete some. How can I do that but still have them available if I need to? Have heard that you can split the db and upload only those you want
Is there a help site with a manual for this program?? At this stage I have not registered as I can't work out if I am actually going to use it very much.

Error in Macro at line: 131
Macro File=$strFindStatFile
I tried this and it told me it was installed, I tried to run it and it won't let me. I gave up on macros long ago because I don't understand what they are or how they work.![]()

You need to make sure that you can view hidden folders in the folder view options.
Then you need to find and delete GenUploadStats.dat in the following folder
C:\Users\Yourname\AppData\Roaming\gsak\Macros
where Yourname is the windows login you use.
That should fix it. That's where it is in Windows 7.
The address might be a little different in Windows XP.
If you can't find the appdata area type %appdata% into the Run command in the start menu, and run it.
