I have coordinates in this format:
N 44 degrees 14.226 minutes, W 110 degrees 39.089 minutes.
How do I convert them into a format that I can import as a csv file into ArcGIS Explorer online?
Thanks

Hi - support for degrees decimal minutes has been requested for other areas of Explorer Online (http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/37018-Decimal-Minute-support-for-XY-and-Measure-tool - possibly this thread contains useful information for you if you are an ArcGIS Desktop user). There's an enhancement request to support this coordinate format, but I'm afraid I'm unable to give a date as to when this might be added.

Yeah, what about if you have long list of x,y or utm coordinates that I need to calcuate them in a batch ? I am looking for one that you can upload to a web application to do that and then output in a new file.
