I was wondering if anyone might know how to convert this coordinate system to a format that MapPoint can read. Any help would be appreciated.

Source format:
Long: -122209700
Lat: 47681033

Thanks

Looks like degrees-minutes-seconds without the decimal points.

Can you give a location so we can confirm we're looking at the right place? (I'd guess Seattle, based on the N47, W122. But if you don't want to give it, go to a conversion site such as http://www.spatialbase.com/dd_dms.htm and see what/where it gives you.)

If that's the right format, the conversion is pretty simple. you can do a search on for "convert degrees minutes seconds" and find it, or reply back and someone can post the algorythm.

Rahn :)
