Yes, the login business is always a headache. FWIW, the USPS site has address validation without a login. I do not use the API, I just create a URL with all the parameters and then parse the page sent back. It's not elegant but it works.

We can send out a validation of City and State, sigh, and it needs to be sent in XML that includes a user id, password and access ID. That is what is messing me up... I didn't know we could validate addresses on the US PS site.. Philip L. Borkholder Systems Analyst/Programmer Automation Plus, Inc.
