Updating MapPoint Data

Is there a way to update the ZIP Codes contained in MapPoint 2002? Apparently the Post Office adds and deletes ZIP codes on a regular basis which allows you to create a pushpin location with an invalid ZIP code.

You can't update the zip code data selectively in MapPoint, you have to buy the next version of the software.

One thing you might look into is obtaining zip code data in a GIS format for GIS software, that can aid in setting up a translation or correspondence table to match your data's zip codes to what's in your version of MapPoint..
