    I have a 2555, I don't know the name of the file that you need but I can can send you the file if we can identify the file name. The 2555 and 2597 have the same file structure. The 2597 has more features. How did you delete it? Did you do this when the unit was connected to the PC?

    Hi Norman, I have the file. I tried posting it as a download on our website but when you try to download it, it opens up the browser and displays the file as a html webpage. Can you give me an email address to send to? You can post it as text... like this: sharcnet-usa AT sharc DOT NET

    I posted the file here: I think you would have to copy the text in the file and then save it under the correct file name. If you give me your email address, I'll just email it to you.

Connect your unit up to the PC and run Garmin's webupdater program. It will scan your unit and tell you what updates are available and if you deleted a file, it will allow you to re-download it. You can find the program here: http://www8.garmin.com/support/collection.jsp?product=999-99999-27
