Those files are great.
But be careful: in the Dutch file there are in many cases incorrect decimal
values of the latitude and longitude. It looks as if in these cases the
decimal point should be 1 position more to the left (same as divide by 10).
I did not check any other file.

Dear all,
At

or at

you can find huge Excel-ish files containing lots of
coordinates from almost every country in the world.
These data can easily be added to your routines, databases,
etc. You have to credit them (of course) and if you need more
precision (or is it accuracy?) you have to pay for them.
It's fantastic!
Thanks to all for the links,
Anselmo
