It is now possible to use Latitude and Longitude inputs within Custom Format ini files for all data types. Previously all X/Y positional data had to be in Easting and Northing to import an ASCII data file using a Custom Format ini file.

To import Lat/Long data the ini file should contain fields named 'Latitude' and 'Longitude'. Any sensible format (i.e. Decimal degrees, Degrees and Decimal Minutes, Degrees, Minutes, Seconds) should be able to be read, although care should be taken regarding the DMS separator in respect to the file delimiter (i.e. don't try to use a space as the DMS separator when the file delimiter is also set as a space!)
