Hello,
   I am trying to write an envelope printing program which contains
a database of all the people you want to print.  Also, I have a database with
all the zipcodes and citys, so they can enter Either one and the city come up.
I'm not too concerned with archiving/compressing the information about the
people, but I NEED to do something about the zip codes and citys.  It's
a 600 k file with each zipcode on a seperate line.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
