Greetings all,
I have a project I am working on where I receive serial gps data and display it on an lcd.

The string im receiving:

$GPGGA,170834,4124.8963,N,08151.6838,W,1,05,1.5,280.2,M,-34.0,M, ,*75

The problem I am having is,I receive the data in on the 8051 sbuf then send it to ram. Once I get the information into ram,I cannot figure how to break the serial string apart so that certain infomation goes to the right spot on the display i.e Lat goes to the lat position on the display and long goes to long ect. ect. I cannot find any information on the net on the best way to do this. I was wanting to know if someone could give me some help or examples on the best way to accomplish this task. Thank you in advance.
