Thanks... that's very helpful! It did take a long time to set up the zones, but it will be worth it. Too bad most of them fall into Zone 8 for me, way in the northwest corner of the country.

I like it BUT when I go to View SOurce I get a message that sayd can not from "notepad" or one or more of it's components.
Can anyone help me out?
I would like to adjust this chart for shipping from 801 zip code.

I got my "calculator" working fine. HOWEVER,
eBay is rejecting it and the site I use to schedule launchings is showing it as an error.
In summary, I can't get it to launch through eBay or my launching site.

This was easy to do, just time consuming. Remember that if you ship multple weight items, you will need one for each weight.
For those who asked about setting this up, I'd be glad to do it for a small fee due to the time required.
Yahoo mail is not working so I cannot reply to your message at this time. You are missing the table parameters at the top of the file and your "Zone 1" starts with just a "5".
Below is a file I am working on. It is complete except Zone 8. You can use this for a model.
