That's a known issue of the Google Maps KML export.

Yesterday, once I converted the route to gpx format and uploaded it to the Garmin, the whole route was scrambled and had to be re-ordered manually -- very time consuming! -- although all the points were there.

That's not a proof that RouteConverter scrambled the positions, could be the Garmin device, too.

I know what you mean Wink

Frankly I am astonished that not a single one of them gives you the option of doing this directly with their own software. What are they thinking?

Maybe nothing. Maybe "consumers are buying my devices anyway"? Maybe they're good device makers but suck at PC software - you can observe that pattern "good HW, lousy SW" with cameras, mobiles, plug-in cards Wink

Anyway: to help, I need much more detailed information. Currently I can only guess, what's going wrong and there is no hint that RouteConverter is the problem. So: Please describe in great detail and with all the data, URLs and screenshots you can put into it what I have to do to reproduce the issue you're experiencing. Note that if you want to upload files to the forum use ZIP archives.
