This is a simple objects>split.   Use the wire center file as your target.
Make the wire editable, select all from wire, Objects>Set Target.  Then
select all from your zip code file.  Choose objects split.    Then
Table>Update the wire table using the zip column and choose where the wire
table CONTAINS object from the split table.  Save copy as (wire table) and
give it a new name.  This should get you there.   Note:  I would make a copy
of the wire table before you start in case something goes wrong.  You don't
want to corrupt your good table.   Don't worry, this is a piece of cake.

Subject: MI-L Boundary Query




        All,

        The Puzzle:

        I have 2 boundary layers. A Zip code boundary and a wire center
boundary (kind of like a city boundary).

        I am trying to create 1 file for the wire center boundary with a
column that contains the zip code in which it resides.

        The Problem:

        The wire center may contain more than one Zip code.

        What is the best way to accomplish this? I thought I could take the
wire center boundary and split it along the zip code boundary which would
create the separate piece and then assign the zip code. Does someone know of
an automated way to do this process or do you have a suggestion for an
alternative process?

        Thanks,

        Jerry
