    I need help Caculating Zip code Distances

    Could someone please help me, I want to create a formula that will caculate
    the distance between two zip codes. I was not sure if I do what you to to
    caculate the number between two dates.

    RE: I need help Caculating Zip code Distances

    It can't be done like dates since Zip codes have no fixed distance between
    numeric values. You would need to obtain a table somewhere - try an internet
    search - that would either give the distances for any pair of codes (would be
    a pretty big table!) or perhaps would give latitude/longitude, then you would
    need to find someone who knows a formula to convert differences in
    lat/longitude to differences in miles. It will not be an easy task, I'm
    afraid.
