May 2, 200719 yr take for example 51.45 how would i get rid of the 51 ? i am wanting to transpose the A:GPS POSITION LON from decimal to display it in hours.minutes... found a post; To convert the lat_deg variable to dd:mm:ss format, simply keep dividing the fractional remainder by 60, as in the example below:51.42857143 --> 51 deg and 0.42857143*60 min --> 51 deg 25.7142858 min --> 51 deg 25 min and 0.7142858*60 sec --> 51 deg 25 min 42.857148 sec --> 51 deg 25 min 43 sec now i need to get rid of the 51. flr and save as Var the subtract from original number?
