Help with Latitude and Longitude.
I have a list of cities w/ latitude and longitude that I have to find the
distance between any two of the cities. The formula I was given is this..... 69*(difference in latitudes)2 + (difference in longitudes)2 VLOOKUP is used for the differences and needs True or False. Ofcourse I have just started excel so this is really aggrivating. -- Ladi |

Considering that Earth is round I would have thought some trig enters into
the calc. Check Chip Pearson's page for his method. http://www.cpearson.com/excel/latlong.htm -- Rob van Gelder - http://www.vangelder.co.nz/excel "LadiFireBug" wrote in message ...
