If you use a German-language Excel then I would enter the number with the decimal separator comma: -12.8815599.
The decimal separator point is e.g. used in English language versions.
Cell format:
## "°" ## "'" ## "." ## "' '"
5105263791 5105°26'37.91' 322988466 322°98'84.66'' or with formula
=TEXT((LEFT(A3,LEN(A3)-8)&","&RIGHT(A3,8))/24,"[h]° mm' ss,0''")
I would be happy to know if I could help.
