cool thanks... jsut tried it excellent... was trying it earlier bt wouldn't start up and kept crashing...
have been trying to use the yahoo api within flash but its not very good for picking up uk places... so instead I'm going to make my own map... its only for about a square mile and store latitude and longitude myself... just need the boundaries so I can work out in between... might be very slightly out due to the curvature of the earth... but should be close enough.

correct flat dist (doesn't count the fact the earth is not exactly round):
long 180º = 21000km
lat 90º = 10500kmdegree = 116,66km
minute = 1,9km
second = 0,03 km (30 m p sec)
