Feature vertex units

I need to extract the vertices of my road vector data to use as waypoints for a vehicle route in a simulation, but the simulation software expects the waypoints to be in lat long format. When I use the feature info tool to export the vertices to the clip board they are in x,y format. I can't see a way to change the display to lat long in the configuration dialog. Is this possible?

Regards

Billy

    Billy,

    If you set the projection to Geographic (lat/lon) on the Projection tab of the Configuration dialog you can then export all of the coordinates to a text file and they will be stored as lat/lon coordinates.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

    Thanks,
