The ardupilot code has some routines that provide inspiration, I've attached my own (crappy but functional) code that runs on an Ardupilot. It's also got a routine that works out direction and distance.
The hardest thing I found was visualizing the coordinate system. X coordinates work differently at various latitudes and you have to scale degrees by the Cosine of the Lat. Also, when you work with angles, things like Cos and Tan work from a "zero" that is 90 degrees out from regular North/South bearings. Urgh.
Anyway, I hope this helps.
