If just storeing data - set format to text
If using google maps API you need to convert to grid then send
If using msn maps you need to remove the "-" and replace with "+" then send
I'd suggest using two single or double fields. I'm not sure if the
precision of GPS coordinates would require the extra digits of the
double field.
