You're working with TLC? I worked with those guys back at PIPEX for their reward scheme :) And trying it with a few postcodes, it seems to give relatively believable figures. Some seemed shorter than I'd have expected, but then this will be going in straightline distance between the centre of the two postcode areas, not driving distances. (It needs to parse out the first part of the postcode if you supply a full postcode though... I tried it with a full postcode and it didn't work :) Cheers Dave P -- David Precious http://blog.preshweb.co.uk/ :: http://www.preshweb.co.uk/ ____ � The WDVL Discussion List from WDVL.COM � ____ To Join wdvltalk, Send An Email To: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] or use the web interface http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ Send Your Posts To: wdvltalk@lists.wdvl.com To change subscription settings, add a password or view the web interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=wdvltalk ________________ http://www.wdvl.com _______________________ You are currently subscribed to wdvltalk as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
