You need to write out the whole y coordinate (usually in the negative 3 millions). If you apply the rules of swapping the x and y and symbol to your text values, you can define a normal Transverse Mercator projection (with Cape datum) (ie, dont worry about the South facing mess or the constant). Then once you have your points in a shapefile, you can re-project that to WGS84.</p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Hope that helps<br clear="all"></p><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p></div><p class="MsoNormal">-- </p><div><p>Regards<br>Walter Smit (<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Prof. GISc Prac 1193/SA</span>)</p><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Chief GISc Professional</span></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Services - Free State </p><div><p class="MsoNormal"><img border="0" width="200" height="81" id="Picture_x0020_2" src="cid:image002.png@01CFDBFC.090C3430" alt="cid:YKJPICQOGUZD.IMAGE.png"><span style="font-family:"Segoe UI","sans-serif""> <span style="border:solid windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in"><img border="0" width="96" height="90" id="Picture_x0020_3" src="cid:image005.jpg@01CFDBFC.090C3430" alt="Image removed by sender."></span></span><br>National Department of Rural Development and Land Reform<br>Ground Floor, 73 Aliwal Street, Bloemfontein</p><div><p class="MsoNormal">Cell 082 565 4574<br>Office 051 410 5800</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
