Hi Arturo,
Thanks, thanks thanks,
All is perfect !
The wonderful, with the way you showed to me, is that you can open the detailed cities at a high level (i.e. level 9 or 10) for the country where the detailled cities are very numerous, as european or north american countries, and inferior level, for instance level 8, for less populated countries.
Thanks again.

I hope to have an EGEO_ERR.DAT file with the 2 million place names soon, but
until then here's a hack that you can try to achieve what you want:
* Open the GUIDE8/ECU.TDF file with any editor (NotePad is good enough) and
search and replace all instances of "field 0 10" with "field 0 5".
I THINK the "field" field means that the data should be shown when the field
of view is between 0 tenths of a degree and 10 tenths of a degree (that's
level 8: 1 degree). By changing it to "0 5" the names will only appear in
fields between 0 and 0.5 degrees wide (level 9: 0.5 degree).
