There MUST be a site on the net where I can put in co-ordinates and get a
map??? Isn't there?

I believe that I can put in a city, etc. and get it's co-ordinates, but I'd
like to do that in reverse. It doesn't have to name the city...just show me
a map. Any help appreciated.

BTW, Rich, it took all of about 2 minutes to come up with that site. Even
you could do it, with a little effort.

As John pointed out, mapquest will give you the maps. If you want
photos, check out:

John...
1.Thanks....
2. I've been using Mapquest for as long as I can remember. No where, on the
Mapquest page that I have been using,..is access to the lat/long site
shown??? Right after I read and tried your answer..I went right back to my
old Mapquest page and STILL couldn't find a link to the lat/long portion of
Mapquest????? I've put the lat/long Mapquest in my favorites and will be
able to use it, thanks to you.

Thanks for helping...

I just did a google search for " latitude longitude search" and came up with
over a million hits. Two minutes of poking in the first 2 or 3 pages
yielded the mapquest site.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
