texte = Hi Velma, Here is the code that I am using to access UPS. I had some good help from Alain Russell (if I remember correctly) to sort some of it out. I was kind of at the same stage as you at the time! This requests UPS Ground, UPS Second Day Air and UPS Next Day Air rates for the package to e sent. It is sort of a pita to get the data back out of their return xml do to the worthlessness of the [middle] context. (Anyone find the way this things works useful? Sorry, Pet peeve of the day) Don't forget that none of this works until you sign up with UPS, set a username and password and get assigned an AccessLicenseNumber. Hope this helps, Larry Goodhew [text]crlf=[unurl]%0D%0A[/unurl][/text] [text]the_Variables=[!] [/!]
