Thanks for looking at the problem.  I wish there was an easy solution but I will try the batch edit process you provided.

Thanks,

Plan-G / Longtitude Rounding Problem
September 07, 2011, 09:16:23 PM
I have encountered a longitude rounding issue when converting FS9 flight plans to FSX using Plan-G.  Below are copies of both the FS9 and FSX plans.  Please note the rounding of the longitude in PT_B,  PT_C, and PT_E in the FSX flight plan.  When you attempt to fly this flight plan in FSX it takes you to the prime meridian as the waypoint for the above waypoints.   I assume it is setting the longitude to zero.   I can manually edit these in notepad and fix the issue but I have created over 600 flightplans that all have this problem.  The map in Plan-G does display the route correctly.  Any hep in resolving this issue would be appreciated.
