Geocaches

I made a pocket query in www.geocaching.com and imported it in BaseCamp. To my surprise the geocaches are threated as waypoints in stead of geocaches. I also tried an old gpx file which is some months old. When i import this file, geocaches are threated as geocaches.
Also geocaches on my Oregon 550 are not threated as geocaches but as waypoints. What do i do wrong?

Change the format of the generated file from 1.0.1 to 1.0. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Log into geocaching.com
2. browse to your account page (http://www.geocaching.com/account/default.aspx)
3. Change 'GPX Version' under 'Your Preferences' to 'GPX 1.0'.

Pocket Queries generated from then on will be compatible with BaseCamp and devices. The reason one of your gpx files worked is most likely because it was using GPX 1.0

Thank you, I will change it.
