I've made some progress, it seems where I'm stuck is as you can see in the above pictures that 'A' that the ICAO search starts with seems to be treated as a separate unit, I would think it would change but it sticks, and then the Facility ICAO becomes the same as the ICAO search in the above case "APHOG". Now once I send this to @DTO to make the FlightPlanNewWaypointICAO the FacilityICAO it doesn't work at all, I have the index set to 1 but it wont work so I can't figure out what to do now.I'm trying to copy over some of the examples from the default GPS and get them to work but I can't get them to work when I want to set the FlightPlanNewWaypointICAO.I've been looking at how the GPS does business, and it seems it uses InvokeICAOInputMode macro, to set it up for input so I may figure out a way to work that and see if I get some results, not to sure of anything right now just messing with examples as I can.

Out of some odd stroke of luck I found myself a working solution. :( :(

Thanks to all for your help and I apologize for having been so slow with grasping this. :( Now to figure out how to add waypoints and manipulate the nearest airport code..fun! B)

For future reference, don't know if this is known or not - but I had to learn it the hard way. :( %((C:fs9gps:FlightPlanDepartureAirportIdent) (C:fs9gps:FlightPlanDestinationAirportIdent) scat)%!s!The above code works fine, until you try and set the flightplan to directto or directtodestination at which point it crashes the sim with a error report pointing to panels.dll. :( %((C:fs9gps:FlightPlanDepartureAirportIdent))%!s!%((C:fs9gps:FlightPlanDestinationAirportIdent))%!s!The one above works without problem. :(

Glad you got it! :( Roman
