You might try here:

under Navigation/GPS. My connection's so slow, it took me
45 minutes just to get to this page, so I didn't investigate any
further.

Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- OT: Lat / Long calculator?
Can anyone help please? We had some small bouts of cemetery vandalism at
family cemeteries on farms. (Halloween?) I have taken pictures of the
stones so they can be put back, but I recently bought a GPS device and took
locations of the graves.
Ok, does anyone know of a program where I can enter two points, and it will
give me direction and distance to walk? I.e., I enter the coordinates for
Point A, and wonder which direction to go for Point B, so I enter that
point and it will give me something like:
45 deg, 4,239 feet. So I get 45 degrees (clockwise) from North (about
Northeast), and walk 4,239 feet and take a GPS reading again. It would be
wonderful if such a program would work on a PDA. If it worked on a PDA and
I was off, I would have to take a reading and calculate how far and
direction to walk again.
I hope I am making sense. I really am a rookie when it comes to Lat and
Long coordinates. Thank you, everyone.
This is not a computer inquiry. Please feel free to email me off list. I
would appreciate a subject saying "Latlong" or "Coordinates>'
Thank you, everyone.
