Once the coordinates have been entered, by you or geo-code, they do not change, unless you delete them and have the box Do Not Geo-Code checked. So, then you can alter the sorting in many ways, the simplest being right to left.
As for precise location coordinates, I always use external mapping sites. With some, you can get the coordinates for a house, not just a street, and even some cemetery plots!

But I thought Legacy and most genealogy programs were set up to acknowledge only the four-divisions if you are using the mapping features. I didn't think it would know what to do with divisions beyond four for geo-coding, even if it displays them? What am I missing?
