Subject: Calculations based on zip code *SPAM: 4*

Hi everyone
I have a couple of problems/challenges/situations that I hope someone
can
point me in the right direction

Challenge 1 : Calculate the number of miles between 2 zip codes.
As the zip code pertains to a post office (I think),
what is
required is the distance between each post office as the crow flies
Now I'm sure that I came across something to do with
this
actual situation for the AS/400 many, many, many moons ago, but I cannot
find it

Challenge 2. List the zip codes within a certain radius near one
particular zip code (The radius can change)



As always, any leads MUCH appreciated
