Thanks for the reply Ron,
I don't have a C compiler. I can run win 32 executables, I have my
wrapper linked into a DMS -2- Dec convertor.
Cheers

PS any lat/long that I can convert and provide a tile for a s proof of
operation, would also be appreciated.

Hi Dene,
I don't know whether this is of any use for you to control the results
of your work, but I converted Melchior's pearl file some time ago to
Delphi and incorporated it into FGTools for calculation purposes.
I put the *pure* FGTools v 1.38 version on my homepage, no other files
are appended to hold the downloadtime for you very short (<500 kb), but
you can use the calculation for controlling.
http://home.arcor.de/vollnhals-bremen/Dene0603/fgtoolsv13-18.zip
Prerequisite:
1.) You have to create an unzipped (decompressed) apt.dat file in your
\data\Airports\ folder (you'll find the apt.dat.gz there, WinZip does a
good job to unzip it).
2. With FGTools:
- go go the "Models" page of FGTools 1.3.18
- select the path to your unzipped apt.dat file by pressing the button
"Get airport.dat filepath"
- select the path to your scenery folder by pressing the button "Select
Scenery Folder"
3. Now you can work
a) input latitude/longitude by pressing the button "Calc Tile Lat Lon"
(a seperate input window will pop up)
OR
b) give an ICAO code of an installed airport into the field "ICAO" and
press the button "Calc Tile: Aiport (ICAO)
OR
c) read latitude or longitude from an created FG log-file by reading it
with button "Get Position from Log-File"
You will see what happens and which fields are filled. I hope that the
calc-code works all over the world as I tested it only for Germany.
Regards
Georg EDDW
