We spend much of our time traveling to lakes, rivers and canals to camp and
sail and I've been using MS Streets & Trips to plan our routes. My program
is getting dated (2002 version) and I'm thinking of updating but I'm not
well pleased with this program. It often does not show the local roads
around lakes and often will not even show rivers and lakes that I know are
there. Lake SWJ in W.Va is a good example. It was finished in 1984 and
does not show up at all on the MS map.
Is there a better program for this purpose?

I use Delorme Street Atlas. It has everything on it. Also will interface
w/ my Garmin gps in terms of downloading routes (won't download maps but the
route will and it will also interface for continuous updates going down the
road).

========================================

I use Street Atlas also and have the little postage stamp sized GPS
that runs from the USB port (no additional power required). It's a
great combo and you can get both together for about $130 at your
neighborhood computer store.
