Has anybody callculated the baring from a GPS pos to an other GPS pos.
I tried to use arctan, but it was too complex.

I be thankfull for some help.

    This can be calculated using the formula for Great Circle Bearings. It is a
    very complex formula but can be programmed in Basic or QBasic, not PBasic.

    I have it if you are interested.
