You can put the value (or a formula) in either the product database or in formulas.db, you can put it into the shopping cart either when you add the product or with a [setlineitem] context, you can display it on the invoice page, and it should be added to the Grand Total correctly (remember that the UnitShipCost won't be taxed unless you do some trickery to add it to the price or something).I hope this helps,Marc Eagle StarNine Technologies http://www.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
