This ay have been discussed, but I couldn't find it. I've a triton 400 and was going to load geocaches. In vantage point, a window can be opened to enter data such as short or long descriptions, hints, and change the icon. I can't find a button to click to save the data. The only thing I can find is the "x" button in the upper right hand corner that closes the window, but doesn't save the data.

Can anyone describe how to make this work?

Michael

Are you running the newest version of VP, version 1.60? Because this is what I get when I go into the edit cache screen and Save is on the bottom.

I am running the older version of VP and the 'edit' screen looks just like that.
However, I know sometimes when I open it I do need to click and drag the box up for it to reveil the "SAVE/CANCEL" buttons. Maybe thats whats going on?-

I'll fiddle with it again tonight. I thought I was running 1.6, but maybe not. Your screen shot is spot on with what I'm seeing, except no cancel or save feature.

I'll check when I get home.
