    Google Maps Function to show Kilometers instead of meters.

    Hey guys. I got this code from "TheAnalystCave" and think it worked quite well. The only things that confuses me is that I can't find how to change the value of distance. It shows meters to me but I want it to show Kilometers instead, any suggestions of where I can change that?

    Got any quick way to show the distance in a cell? Now I've made a button which I have to press to show it, I kinda want it to show in a cell below once i press enter when the destination is filled in.

    If you mean that you have the inputs in A and B columns and the UDF formula in say C then that uses A and B then it should work.

    That's exactly what I mean. So I write destinations "From: in A1" and "To: in A3" and I want to show the distance "Total distance xx km: in A6". What formula do I use for that?

    In A6:
    =GetDistance(A1, A3)
