Hello Terry, Charles, et alWell, the old addage is true but how many of us believe it--read the manual! The zip code for businesses works well, although I can only get it to work with the first half of a UK post code, not the full one. But that's good enough for me!
thanks for the explanation Charles and I again must say what a big difference there is in Ver 5. I'm also glad I've at last bothered to join the list! (smile).
Dennis.

Hi Terry and Dennis,
Awh yes thanks Terry that is a great way for users to search forbusinesses in a particular zip code. I know its not ideal to
find a
specific house address by zipcode but this could be a way around
the
issue at least until the address lookup zipcode functionality has
been added.
Thanks Charles.

When comparing GPS with other accessible products, one thing is missing that is standard on most "sighted" navigation systems is the ability to put in a zip or post code to search when setting a destination etc. Any idea when this will be implement, and would be interested to know why it hasn't already, that is, what problems there are with the Sendero system that other systems have got round... Thanks in advance. Dennis from the UK.
