Scott,
Happy to help as my own code works OK. I have even tried a
volume test ( a file with 63000+ entries) and that found my post codes. I
can't understand why yours doesn't work as the code uses the "standard" find
logic; I have added to mine to do "FindNext" but yours should find a least
one code.

It won't match if the post code(s) have extraneous blanks at front and back
.... could this be happening? and I assume you get the "No post code found"
message.

If you want, e-mail your code ( plus some data) to me at
.

Well the code I use at the moment, can certainly check the current directory
and finds all the valid files correctly. But the postcode search doesn't
seem to work? I have stepped through the code and I doesn't find postcodes
that are there??? That seems odd to me? Obviously I'd like to get this
problem solved, but I have nothing financial to offer you, like I said
earlier the one thing I am really good at is passing on racing tips!

So I really would like you to help me, but if not then I guess I'll have to
suffer in silence!
