Now modifying the existing one or adding the cureent spot is even easier
that I can do it too, and it works with much older GPS as well.
Just drive to the specific place (front, back, side whatever you wish)
then TAB on the Car Icon and it will give you the option to save as personal
Interests.

: Hi group!
: I am running MapSource 6.15.7 and CNNA 2010.2
: My unit is a GPSMAP 76csx.
: I noticed that a prominent government building is more than 200 yards
from
: where MapSource say it is.
:
: Is there any way of manually correcting its location into CNNA 2010.2?
: (maybe Garmin's POI loader?)
: I don't want just to report it, as I am sure Garmin will say it will
be
: fixed in the latest version of CNNA which you can purchase for
megabucks!
