Yes. I am aware of this statement. But in reality, it seems, those three countries are shipped for addresses. I just don't have any clou why.GPSrChive wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 2:25 pmWe are only reporting what is stated on the Garmin TopoActive Europe Webpage:ConiKost wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 10:00 amThis is not fully correct. As for the Europe edition of TopoActive, it contains addresses for germany, poland and be-ne-lux, but without house number. This is also confirmed by Garmin to me, that this is intended behavior.GPSrChive wrote: ↑Mon Mar 13, 2023 1:19 am Interesting that this option is available to you as Garmin TopoActive maps do not support address search functionality.

Re: Finding an address
I want to thank you guys for the help. It will be a little while before I try GMapTool OSM, but that is my plan. I'll have to educate myself about the process. I have to say that I'm a little disappointed with the unit in some ways, but it shines if you're a geocacher. It does a good job of storing cache information, logs, etc. I'm not used to that, and in the past I needed to copy and paste on paper in order to have information with me. I'm returning to geocaching in retirement as something for fun and exercise. Also, my wife enjoys nice walks.

Re: Finding an address
I took me a while to get back to this, but I installed an OSM. Far better than TopoActive. The features suit me well so far. I had been mad to the point that I wasn't even using the unit and wished I had returned it. But now, all seems good. I've only been playing with the new setup for a couple of days but I'm confident. Thanks for steering me in this direction!
P.S. I thought I had missed an installation step because the new map didn't show up as a choice in the unit until after a few restarts.
