I apologize, but I am catching the tail end of this I believe. There is a way to type in zip codes into ebase when you are entering the contact information then the city and state information is just filled into the contact's information? Is this used for ebase 1 & 2?

Just close ebase and copy the new zip_.103 into your working ebase folder. After you do this, when you enter a zip code, the city and state fields should be automatically filled in. If you want to do a mass update of existing records, you can use the Filemaker REPLACE command. I'll give you more details if you need them. - Bob ------------------------------------------------------------ Bob LeLievre LeLievre Information Services List Management Services for Non-Profits voice: 617-474-9131 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: www.lelievre.net -----Original Message----- From: Carl Paulsen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2002 10:55 AM To: TechRocks Support Subject: [support] Re: City and State input via zip codes I haven't played with that data yet so can't speak to specifics of what you need to do. Basically, though, you would need to move the data from that file into the ebase zip_.10x file in your database. That would probably entail determining which fields exist in Bob's file, mapping them to the proper fields in the zip_.10x file, then importing the data into that file. More than that I can't say as yet. Carl [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > As a new user of ebase, I note that the cursor jumps from address to zip > code.
