G'day Tony
I didn't use the link Ronda indicated, what I did was type " Lookup
Postcodes a2e4 " into Google, when it opened you get a page full of
options, click on the top one, " Neologica software downloads " then
press on " Lookup Postcode installer " there's even a picture to show
you what to do. and hey presto thats it. you may have to restart, but I
didn't.
hope this gets you working, other than that its how they say " your on
your own " only kidding.

Dear Bill
Thanks for your interest
The home section of address book does not show the plug in to be loaded
The issue for me is what did I download, where did it go, etc
The web page , from memory, showed a dozen or more download options,
which one did you choose
Sorry for this infantile monologue, but nothing seems as easy as you
guys say
Regards
Tony

G'day Tony & Ronda
finally cracked my " State " problem in the address book, when I
started to enter W.A. and the menu dropped down, one of the
alternatives I could select was highlighted in lower case, changed it
to the upper case one " W.A. " and hey presto rectified.
Certainly shows to check the simplest things first !!!
Hope you have solved your problem Tony.
Thanks Ronda
cheers

Hi Bill, Tony & WAMUGers,
Bill is correct in everything he has said.
I installed it from the Installer & it asked if I wanted it
installed in Address Book & Entourage.
I installed it in Address Book (I don't have Entourage).
It doesn't install in the Scripts Folder ... it installs in - HD >
LIBRARY > ADDRESS BOOK PLUG-INS
Then when you Open Address Book and click & hold on 'Home' (where
you have the address),
in a person's card it shows 'Lookup Postcode' as well as other
Scripts such a WhereIs, WhereIs Directions, MultiMap etc.
Tony does not mention what OSX or version of Address Book he is
using.
As to why Bill can only have 'State' in lower case, I really have no
idea ??
Other than checking my Preferences, I have in 'General' Address
Format - Australia & Font - Regular.
My State is in upper case (WA).
Cheers,
Ronni

G'day Tony,
Hmm got me there, should be in Library/Address book Plugins/Lookup
Postcode script.
But its not. I'm not technical minded, things works for me then I'm
happy,
I just opened my address book, clicked on the tab "home"or "work"
depending on if its commercial or private address, it cascades down
and I select "lookup postcodes " from a number of options it gives.
It does say that its only been tested on 10.3.7/10.3.8 & Address
book 3.1.2 and Entourage 2004 11.1.0. and "may" not work on
others...and also reqs an active internet connection.
Hope this is some help, me I'm still trying to figure out why my
"State" in the address will only accept lower case.
I'm hoping Ronda or someone on the list can help ( both of us by
the look of it !! )
Cheers
Bill

Hello Bill
Would you mind clarifying how one finds (I have downloaded it and
installed it) the script and how one uses it

Hi Ronda,
I agree great , just started using it and find it very good( G5
10.3.8 ) although I cannot understand why in the "State" mine
only accepts lower case, (no capitals) or am I missing something
?
