Barry, the reason why it doesn’t work is that you use

you must use a valid ‘place’ tag ,ie

 

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<osm version='0.5' generator='GPSBabel-1.4.4'>
  <node id='-1' visible='true' lat='57.1482319' lon='-2.0966479'>
    <tag k='created_by' v='GPSBabel-1.4.4'/>
    <tag k='name' v='AB10 1AA'/>

  </node>
  <node id='-2' visible='true' lat='57.1487071' lon='-2.0978060'>
    <tag k='created_by' v='GPSBabel-1.4.4'/>
    <tag k='name' v='AB10 1AF'/>

  </node>

 

I don't understand, here is a snippet of my osm file

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<osm version='0.5' generator='GPSBabel-1.4.4'>
  <node id='-1' visible='true' lat='57.1482319' lon='-2.0966479'>
    <tag k='created_by' v='GPSBabel-1.4.4'/>
    <tag k='name' v='AB10 1AA'/>
    <tag k='place' v='AB10 1AA'/>
  </node>
  <node id='-2' visible='true' lat='57.1487071' lon='-2.0978060'>
    <tag k='created_by' v='GPSBabel-1.4.4'/>
    <tag k='name' v='AB10 1AF'/>
    <tag k='place' v='AB10 1AF'/>
  </node>

could the node id also be a problem, if it is do you know of an automatic my to change them.
