Hello Everyone!! 
I have a database of points (1000's of them!) with a column defining
geographic location using Ordnance Survey Grid References. Here's an
example:

Column A
5205 7171
5214 7170
5204 7161
etc...

I would like to use MI's create points function on this dataset but it
seems to me that x,y coordinates are required using degrees (lat/long).
The dataset
that these points will be overlaid with will hopefully be the OS-Panorama
data (I'm still waiting for a price quote!!!) and I am also hoping that
the
projections will correspond!!! Is there possibly a Mapbasic utility that
will batch process the OS grid reference into lat/long? I'll take other
suggestions too. Before we have some poor student input this data (175
pages) we would like to know if it will be possible to create points.

Thanks for your wise council.
Sharon
