WAHT'S NEW IN VERSION 3.0?

Version 3.0 includes:
- FMP 10 compatibility
- New data from Royal Mail: Q1, 2009
- A new multi-point route planner.  As opposed to simple A to B route planning available on many websites, the PCPA route planner tries to work out the best route for travelling between multiple destinations with the final route displayed using Google Maps. The Route Planner is provided as a completely open sample file that can be used as is or you can integrate the logic into your own system. Postcode PA Route Planner can aid companies requiring advance planning of complex logistics or even the one-man band who needs to work out his best route for the day.
- Various other changes.
Please see: http://www.productiveit.co.uk/ documents/PCPA_Update_History.pdf for a full update history.

Chaim Bacon, Director, says:

Unlike all other postcode solutions, this is entirely in FileMaker Pro and requires no 3rd party application and this is the only UK postcode application currently available for both Macintosh & PC. FileMaker users can now easily integrate postcode, address management & geographical requirements directly into their own database solutions.
