TIME ZONE LINES
Streets & Trips user, Steve Jones, has created a timezone map overlay. You can download it from his website: http://ontimezone.com
If you want to add timezone lines to an existing map it can be done in 2 ways.
Select and Copy the lines from the EST or STT file
- Open the OnTimeZoneNA.est file
- Open up a second instance of Streets & Trips showing your existing target map file.
- Single-click one of the lines in the source file (you should see it become selected) and copy (press Ctrl+c)
- Give focus now to the target map and simply press Ctrl+v to paste the line on the existing map.
- Repeat the process for each timezone line as there is no way to multiselelect.
Note:
- the lines can be customized for color and thickness using the drawing toolbar.
- this copy paste technique can also be used to copy pushpin sets from one map to another.
Import the TimeZone GPX file
- Download the ST-TimeZone-Lines.GPX file
- Import using Data –>Import GPX file menu option
Note: This technique is fast and easy but be warned – it cannot be reversed. Those lines imported using the GPX import cannot be removed, edited or customized.

I HAVE IMPORTED DATE FOM EXCELL
HOW CAN I REMOVE DUPLICATE PUSHPINS
using 2011
have loke all over on how to export pushpins to a excell file
can this be done
Hi Gib,
Streets & Trips supports importing data from a Excel file but not exporting to Excel.
You can export the data to a GPX file but that is about the only way to get it back out.
FWIW, Microsoft MapPoint allows you to export to Excel if you really need the functionality.
The best way to remove duplicate data is in the source file. Once it has been imported you’d have to select and delete each duplicate pushpin 1 by 1.
I am having trouble reading my Streets & Trips 2008 file after a computer upgrade and the software re-installation. The error message reads, “An attempt was made to access an unnamed file past its end.” HELP!!!!
Hi Jenny,
This messages is related to an attempt to open a newer S&T map file with an older version of S&T.
How do I convert MSN S&T 2012 data to 2010. My client only has 2010. Thank you
Hi Dan,
The current release is Microsoft S&T 2011. What type of data are you trying to convert. If you have 2011 you can export some of the data types to GPX file which can be imported into 2010.
Hope that helps
Larry
how do i get 2010 streets & trips to go to the next stop, if i decide to skip a stop?
Hi Larry,
Thanks for your question. This is how I delete a stop while en route. I go to the GPS pane and uncheck the “Provide Naviation” checkbox then I go to the Route planner pane and delete the unwanted stop. Then re-check the “Provide Navigation” checkbox and continue on.
I’ve read about a ‘helper app’ called S&T Keys that makes this pretty easy although I’ve never tried it myself. More info here: http://www.laptopgpsworld.com/2345-skip-stop-microsoft-streets-trips
Thanks, I’ll try that.
I continue to load or “repair” a setup of Streets and Trips 2011 on a Windows 7 32-bit operating system and continue to receive the message “Your registry settings for this application were not copied correctly. To correct these settings, run Setup again for this application from the location where you originally installed it” over and over. I tried cleaning my registry of all referrals to streets and trips and then reinstalling, but to no avail. Any help possible?
Hi Edward,
Sorry to hear you are seeing this message. Have you tried any of the suggestions found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314590? Hopefully, that will take care of it for you.
Is there any way to load and read the map files from S&T 2011 on my Android phone ? I love and have used the program since it first came out and get a new version every year when they become available. But I hate to carry around paper maps for every route I have to use them for. I use S&T to route school bus pick-ups for my work it has been invaluable. The map programs the school bus company’s put out cost thousands and I work for a small non-profit school and S&T works so much better and the cost savings make me look real good.
That is so encouraging to hear how you are using Streets & Trips for school bus pickups! Thanks for being such a strong supporter of the software! Do you use S&T with a GPS receiver for navigation or just print the maps out?
To answer your first question…currently there is not a way to load/read S&T map files on any Android phone.
I print the maps for the drivers (school can’t afford to have computers with gps in the buses) when I have to check out new clients I use my own netbook and the gps to find where I am going. We cover both Los Angeles and Orange county in Califorina and it is a big space to remember all the streets.
hehehe.
