pals, i am still unable to plan a few different routes between point A and Point B concurrently on Mapsource.

cos when I click ROUTE TOOL, it continues from my last point
When the previous route is completed, have you pressed ESC, or right-clicked > Cancel, to end the route.

Another method is to create Waypoints for start/via/end locations, and just select/highlight the waypoints at user data tab (click and drag or CTRL+select), then right-click (at the higlighted waypoints at user data tab) and select "Create Route using Selected Waypoints...".

thanks pal, the magic is in the escape key.

2nd method with waypoints is quite tricky if u did not set the waypoints in the right order, the route planned can be messy.

many thanks for your help again

1. Before selecting "Create Route using Selected Waypoints...", you may select "Show Selected Waypoints On Map" first. That way when the route is calculated, there will be a yellow line with direction from each waypoint to another to illustrate the order of waypoint within the route.
2. Also order of waypoints can still be edited at Route Properties after initial calculation.
