Wanted to leave it open, as I may rather have driving distance in the future. But also, we want to do this for our UK offices as well. Seems at least M$'s mapping api's took postal code as well as zip.
What would a table of worldwide postal/zip codes and lat/long cost? -----Original Message----- From: Russ [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 12:46 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Zipcodes addresses and all that jazz Why not just calculate it yourself? Get a table with lat and long, and use a function to calculate the distance. I found one fairly easy when I build something like this a while ago. > -----Original Message----- > From: Turetsky, Seth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 9:11 AM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Zipcodes addresses and all that jazz > > Cool stuff. > So with esri, can you do the routing without showing a map, ie for > backend systems?
