Zip code lookup is built into ebase as delivered. Enter the zip code, and city, state, county are looked up. What's missing in your case is data in the file zip_.103. You can manually enter the data, or as Walt says, find the procedure to export the data you need from your current names records. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
