Is there a formula within Quickbase that would calculate the miles from one point to another if the latitude and longitude were supplied for two locations?

Right, if only QuickBase would come up with some new native functions like SIN and COS I would go that way with a more complicated formula.  I suppose that I could load up a table for the values of SIN and COS for each degree or radian but that is too much work for my needs.  For the two projects I did for clients it was all about ranking the options by distance to know which clinics were closest to the Patient or which Teachers were closest to the course locations.
