If you were to make it an option with a check box it would have to (for the USA) be sure that the alpha 2 UPPER CASE letter for the states would be in one of the last 2 lines of the send to address. It would have to recognize that there is a space or comma before and after the PA. If there is no AK or MN or CA or any of the 50 states then no zipcode since it is not US. It would not generate a barcode if it does not recognize at least 5 consecutive numerical digits in the same line that has the state NJ code. If it has five followed by a hyphen- then continue with the next four. I read that a commercial mailing program now put another 2 or 3 digits to further refine the mailing for apartment houses I believe but that is overkill.
The customary format of the send to is
Mr. John Doe
Title of department Bank Manager
1234 Street and/or
P.O. Box 1234
Albany, NY 12345-1234
Does Canada have zipcodes with barcodes???
I hope I haven't confused you too much.
Thanks,
Ed

Actually I already have code I written that breaks a address apart to pull state and zip, I did it in my transportation broker program I wrote that a few business use. So breaking apart and getting the zip wont be hard to do. Now the question is, where on earth do I put this new option? The screen is rather full lol
Only place I could put it would be another tab with the logo and extra text. Let me see what I can do, just finished the thumbnail for the print preview.
