Here is a program that you can try, looks pretty good and they just ask for a donation if you like/use the program. Coordinate Exchange for MapPoint http://www.hypercubed.com/projects/coordex

What I finally figured out how to do was use one of those conversion programs or websites to convert the coordinates to the proper format for MapPoint (WSG84 decimal format). Then I enter those into a comma-delimited text file and import into MapPoint. This seems to work fine, although I am then not able to change the Pushpin data set properties to another data set that I already have created in the past. I'm not sure why this is the case and if anyone knows how to work around this, please tell me. |
