location in GoogleMaps action not accepted

Hi
Could not find this issue, so I hope one of you knows.

I try to insert the right location code, as provided me by Google Earth, reason: the zipcode adress is not accurate enough, so I really need the exact longitude and lattitude.
But.
Freeway action does not accept something like 11°21’34.01"O and 11°21’33.96"O Error: only numerical, or Eror too large, more than 90 (or something)
How do I do this? Handcode? Where?

Thanks for answering.

Freeway takes lat/lngs that have been converted to decimal, it doesn’t understand DMS (Degrees, minutes, seconds). Use this tool to navigate to the point you want to get the lat/lng for and note the lat/lng values in teh fields to the left of the map:

Hey Joe, this might be a good thing to add as a link button in the
Action.
