Does anyone know how to erase all of the waypoints that I have stored in my Garmin Venture GPS?  I have reached the maximum number of waypoints that I am allowed to store (500), but I need to upload new waypoints for this weekend's upcoming trip.

I have downloaded all of my waypoints in my GPS to the hard drive of my home computer using EasyGPS.  I would like to erase the ones in my GPS before I go out to the Yuma area so I will have room to upload waypoints for geocaches in southwestern Arizona.  After I return from that trip, I will restore the waypoints that I have stored at home back to my GPS.

Therefore, how can I erase the waypoints currently stored in my GPS?  It is too tedious and time-consuming to delete them individually - I would like to do it all at once.
