That works, but my numbers have 6 decimal places, possible formats are 5
decimals in "change the display format", but Mapt does not give a
possibility of 6 or more. This should have the capacity for the user to
enter in the desired form. Granted, most times not necessary, but for
non-earth coverages, 6 decimals could be important, and of course, depends
on the units. Also for relative measurements on the ground.
There is another solution. First in EXCEL multiply the long and lat by a
million. Then format to numerical with no decimal places. Then do the
import - now it works.

The decimals are all there, they are just not being displayed. Use
Dataview-Column Settings and change the display format to show the
decimals.
