Congratulations, you've made your first Map File! Your map was 
placed directly on your MMC or Secure Digital card. If you wish to keep 
a copy of the file on your computer, use Windows Explorer to copy the 
Map File to the "data" sub-folder located within the MapCreate folder 
on your hard drive. 
Tips: 
•  If you don't plan to change this map later, the map border or Map Bor-
der File that you created it from can now be deleted if you wish. 
•  If you are having trouble saving your Map File to your memory 
card, your MMC may need to be reformatted. For more information
