3.17 Getting the ZIP/Postal Code from a City Name The prototype for the ZIPCode function is: ZIPCode (City,State) NOTE: Sample workbooks using this function are in the Excel folder of your PC*MILER installation, usually in C:\ALK Technologies\PMW<strong>25</strong>x\EXCEL. See section 1.3 for a description of the provided workbooks. ZIPCode returns the postal code corresponding to a place name. The place name is a city with a state or country abbreviation (e.g. Austin, TX or Sion, FR). Any place in the PC*MILER database may be used, with the exception of Canadian place names. ZIPCode returns a -1 if the place name you entered is invalid. HINT: You can use the ZIPCode function to test if a given number is a valid postal code. For example, the following Excel command will return TRUE if cell B2 contains a valid postal code and FALSE if it does not: =NOT (EXACT(-1,ZIPCode(B2))) NOTE: Neither postal codes outside of the U.S. nor SPLC’s can be derived from this function. However, Canadian and Worldwide codes can be found using the Location Lookup dialog. In Excel 2003, select Insert menu > Location Lookup…, then enter a city/state (example: ‘Montreal, QC’ – see below) and click Lookup. Make a selection from the pick list. Excel 2007 users, simply click the Add-Ins menu on the Excel toolbar and select LocationLookup. PC*MILER|Spreadsheets User’s Guide 30
