There is a question to asK,How can I get all zip code in one city.For example,If the city is Manhattan,The zip Codes will include 10001,10002,...,10023,....
I have researched it for some days ,but I can't solve it. So share it.

Hope you can help me,Thank you!

I would think the information would be available from the Postal Service?
Or the yellow pages/phone directory, possibly?

You can get it out of MapPoint but it takes a bit of leg work.
First, plot some of the demographic data as pushpins by zipcode.
This will insert a pushpin for every zipcode.

Then draw a shape polygon around the city. Select the shape, and select "Export to Excel". This will export the pushpins contained in the shape, to Excel.

I had a big problem at work today trying to hunt down zip codes for 600 addresses in Canada, this proved most useful --

Any other suggestions?

Yes,If we implement this function in mappoint,I think it will be hard.then,I found a websitehttp://www.infospace.com/home.toolbar/white-pages/reverse-zip,which is very good.and I can seach my most cities.
Then I program it to implement using VB.In my database,there are about 13,000 records ,and it takes about 8 hours to handle ,Oh ,No,It is too long!

Hi,Eric,
the website you mentioned is a good site,and so useful.However,After I try to it,I found it needed to be provided street name,street no,if it is like this,I think it is better to use mappoint to get the zip code directly!
