It's not that odd. US Zip codes are a sequence of digits. I've worked with plenty of databases where ZIP codes are held in Numeric columns. It's not the ideal format for ZIP codes, because it's perfectly valid for ZIP codes to start with a 0, and Canadian zip codes have letters in them, but I see it all the time. -- Jerry _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
