i just bought a new satnav system after 4 years with tomtom...

anyway, to get the speed camera database to work with it, i must add a couple of commas at the end of each set of co-ordinates contained within the spreadsheet, like this:

-3.23956,51.52737,1,50,1,67,,
-5.29024,50.22664,1,50,1,67,,
-5.27461,50.23143,1,50,1,247,,

thing is, most of them don't have the 2 commas at the end and just end with the number, like this:

-3.23956,51.52737,1,50,1,67
-5.29024,50.22664,1,50,1,67,,
-5.27461,50.23143,1,50,1,247



therefore, what i need to do is make up a formula in excel to search for a double comma at the end of each set of co-ordinates and if it doesn't already have them, then it should insert them...

i'm guessing for anyone with excel experience, this should be pretty easy to solve...

thanks
