[GRASSLIST:7312] v.in.ascii

[David Kindem]

Hello,

I'm attempting to us v.in.ascii to import sites.  Things work fine  
when I use Eastings/Northings.  However, I would like to import  
points in latitude/longiture.  When I attempt to import positions  
such as:

85:46:05.14203W | 43:00:07.320715N

I receive the error message:

ERROR: x column is not of number type

Is there a way to have the program recognize lat./long as legitimate  
entries?

Thanks,

Dave Kindem
