Not really. The best way to transfer it is to upload it to your GPS from mapsource and then download it from the GPS to Topo USA. But since you don't have mapsource, it doesn't help you much.

Map source has 2 formats, one is text and the other is binary. If it is text, you could try g7towin (http://home.attbi.com/~g7towin/), you may need to play around with the format a bit. Open it up in G7toWin and save it as a street atlas file. Topo USA can read in SA files.

As a general note, G7toWin is great for working with GPS files.

Oleg, email it to me, I'll convert it.

Upload it to my GPS from MapSource, then download it back to TopoUSA 3.0.
