through one of the following two methods: Keyboard
Search and Alphabetic Scroll.
Keyboard Search: Before displaying the list of points in
alphabetical order, MobileMapper displays a keyboard
that you can use to enter the first few characters of the
point you are looking for. When you highlight
press ENTER, (or as a shortcut, press IN), you are taken
to the alphabetical list with the point you began typing at
the top of the display. Anytime you are viewing the list
of points, you can re-access the keyboard by pressing
ESC.
Alphabetic Scroll: You can use the IN and OUT buttons
to step up or down the alphabet. If you were viewing
points beginning with the letter "A", pressing OUT
would take you to the first waypoint beginning with "B",
and then "C" and so forth. Pressing IN does the same
function but only in reverse.
