Magellan has their own POI File Editor program (check your Magellan software) that converts CSV files to MGLN files. I believe you can use the Garmin download format from our site as an input to this program.

I will warn you however that from what I've heard it can be a little bit of a frustrating experience!

I would like to find out if anyone has been successful downloading any POi's from available lists and been able to get them into Magellan PPI editor to date I am drawing a blank . I down load the file after selecting Magellan and zip file to my desk top when I unzip and open file it is in Exel format Magellen simply refuses to allow you to transfer this format to the poi editor it typically says the lon and lat are in wrong file names.
