Trouble with me co-ordinates!

[Spotless]

I have a Zumo 550.....and I have lot's of favourite places logged in it now.

I would like to know how, if I call up a favourite place on the GPS.....how can I find out it's co-ordinates?

When you are at a place and you log it as a favourite on the GPS you can see the co-ordinates.....I would like to know how I can look at those co-ordinates......and thereby share them with others, once a place is stored in favourites when I am not at that place any more.......

....blimey!....that sounds complicated.....I hope somebody out there can understand iwhat I am on about and give me the heads up on how to get to the info I am looking for.....

I just had a little play and it certainly isn't obvious. Export your Favourites to Mapsource, you should save them anyway, then click on one and look at its properties, voila les co-ords!

I spent an hour trying to work this out last week when trying to text them to someone else. Thanks for this info

Wouldn't it be a lot easier if Garmin let the screen show the co-ordinates on the waypoints detail page though.
