texte = After seeing a recent posting with a similar situation, I'm back to trying to use Formulas.db to solve my shipping situation, which is:* use a flat rate depending on user-selected shipping method (stored in [shipvia]) * charge that flat rate for one shippable item * charge $2 more per additional shippable item * charge $0 for any downloadables * therefore, if all ordered items are DLable only, shipcost should be $0 instead of whatever was selected as a shipping method.Here is my Formulas.db. I apologize for bad breaks: Yahoo mail really stinks in that regard... Name Formula shipCost [math show=f]temptotship=[lineitems][unitShipCost]+[/lineitems]0[/math][math show=f]baserate=[lookup db=admin/shippers.db&lookinfield=SHR_ID&value=[shipVia]&returnfield=SHR_AMT]-2[/math][hideif temptotship=0][baserate][/hideif][showif temptotship=0]0[/showif]What happens is that the baserate is being charged, even if all the lineitems are downloadable and thus have unitshipcost of 0.So I'm still having a problem zeroing out shipcost. What am I doing wrong or leaving out? Thanks for any guidance.__________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!
