Chiz, The problem was the tab delimited entry. I thought I had fixed that before sending the email to you, but just to make sure, I went through each space again, deleted it, and added spaces. This fixed the problem. Thanks!

A look at the SLAT;SLON;SELV might give a tip as to where the column are off, or if the data is coming from another station in the table with that unexpected lat/lon.
