Hey All:

Working on a site that is going to require searches be done by zip code (eg find me 
the 5 closest to zip code XXXXX, or everything within X miles of XXXXX).

The company I'm working for purchased a COM solution (ZipFindLocator) that was 
supposed to work with CF.  Doesn't :)  Well, apparently it used to...but when I tried 
passing some arguments as a function, I kept getting an error (apparently the COM 
object was expecting certain arguments as boolean, but not interpreting them as such). 
 I just heard back from the tech support people (who were going to try and work on a 
solution), who told me, in a nutshell, no fix.  For whatever it's worth, they say that 
CF 5.0 and up have compatibility issues with this COM object having to do with the 
java runtime and the VARIANT type conversions.  They go on to say that these issues 
will be corrected in future versions of the COM object by strongly typing 
parameters...but in the meantime, no valid solution 
for those using CF 5 and above.

So, anybody know of a solution that will work with CF 5.0 and above?  Preferrably 
something that is not limited to US only.

Thanks,
Charlie
