Hi,

 

FIELD command line is your need for such case.all what you need is to prepare block as attached CAD file. then double click on E text with in the block then right click then go for insert field till dialog appear for you(see attached image).

 

- follow attached image to know all needed info.

- the text field will read the coordinates from the head of arrow.

- when you move or copy the attached block type regen to see all new coords.

TJ,

 

One way would be to convert those Latitudes and Longitudes to UTM Coordinates:
http://home.hiwaay.net/~taylorc/toolbox/geography/geoutm.html
http://www.earthpoint.us/Convert.aspx
http://www.latlong.net/lat-long-utm.html

 

N 41 26 44.1 E 19 42 07.3 would be X=391575.84 and Y=4589035.93. The good news is that you can use GeoLocation to use Bing Live Maps.
