Garmin Montana 600T - How to delete "Active" files

Question

I downloaded some tracks from my Garmin 60CSx onto the 600T. Those tracks included some "Active" files. I can't figure out how to delete them. Highlighting them and selecting "DELETE" doesn't do anything. Also, I downloaded a file called "Start" that I can not delete.

I don't download any more 60CSx files until I delete the "Active" track before downloading.

What other words besides "Start" and "Active" will get me in this jam? The Owners Manual doesn't address this issue.

Thanks,
LeRoy

Not a Garmin guru, but I have had my share of them. The active file may be the current track. When you turn the unit on it begins a track, even adding to the last track. This is automatic. There will always be an active track. Even if you USB connect it to a computer and delete the active track, the next time you turn it on it creates one again.

The Start file is probably a waypoint, either user created or uploaded from the other device. Go into your waypoints list, find it and delete it.

Hope that helps.
