How did you manage to upload Excel file? I tried to upload an Excel file previously but "not permitted" message. Might it have been because it was an .xlsx file extension?

Question on your version, how do you differentiate between North vs South and East vs West co-ordinates?

It handles a negative sign but there is really no need to convert N, E, S or W as they remains the same. Though the spreadsheet could be modified with an extra column you put the letter in - but would that add anything?

I haven't a clue why mine was accepted and yours declined - maybe it was my pretty face.

It's just a basic spreadsheet and easily adapted to whatever you want to see - just be sure not to enter data into the yellow cells or you will delete the formulas.

Finally managed to get the time to upload my version of Excel converter workbook to Resources.
Bit of a "duplication" with GW but it does have one or two extra "features".

For what it's worth I use Google Earth to find places then read off co-ords from bottom right corner (y) I've set it to give me a decimal readout.
never need a converter or app. Plus you can see the actual entrance to where you are going.

Ah, but this thread is all about using the co-ords from All Aires which, for some inexplicable reason, Vicarious stick to that long outdated format......... which most users like to convert to decimal.

Yes (y) having found your aire in Google earth -you can then read off co-ords in whatever format you want.
If I don't do it that way-I set my sat nav to the same format Vicarious use-simples.
