Tomtom 6: Can I Record a Point and Associate it to an Address?

Hello,

I'm very new to GPS navigation as I only got my TomTom 6 on SD card for
a Palm Treo yesterday, and played with it for the first time this
morning.

Here's what I would like to do. I have the address of my office in the
Contacts Database, but it is a postal only address, and the GPS cannot
find the front door, only the nearest intersection. Can I stand on the
parking lot of my office, have the GPS detect my position, and somehow
record it, in such a way as to associate it with the address of my
office in Contacts? Like saying to the system, "No, when I tell you 123
Main Street I mean to come _here_"?

This would also be useful to plot ways to specific entrances of
addresses. Sometimes the official way in, via the front door, actually
isn't where you need to go.

Thanks for your input and patience.
