Kirsten,
I don't recollect anybody suggesting that anybody was trying to "US-ify"
locations but simply that world-wide locations cannot be standardised -
neither today nor in the past. Hence to talk about "a standard" is not
accurate. There is no standard.

I don't see the location guidelines as an attempt to "US-ify" all the

already existing in the program. The very existence of a single long

How are you getting the info from the laptop? Is it on a network or a CDRom.
The reason for asking is that copying files to CD and then trying to access
them on another machine tends to give grief as they are readonly. If the
file is on a CD then copy to the hard disk, change to Read/write
You are so right in accepting (after Ron's info) that you should enter the
location as you found it.
But please don't spoil your response with talking about others with "non
