Hi Rusmawan,

 

There is a more robust procedure (which I adopted from Hernan Sala);

 

*First introduce the world coordinates of your point

Lon1 = 54

Lat1 = 25.5

 

*convert your world coordinates to XY coordinates.

‘q w2xy ‘lon1’ ‘lat1

Say result

 

*load them into new variables x1 and y1

X1 = subwrd(result , 3)

Y1 = subwrd(result , 6)

 

*Draw a marker at x1,y1 

‘draw mark ‘5’ ‘x1’ ‘y1’ ‘0.08

*write your text at the mark with a slight offset from the point

‘draw string ‘x1+0.1’ ‘y1’ ‘your_text

 

Good luck.
