Hi gang:
Does anyone have a source for a US State and City database?
Cheers,

Hey Tedd,
Maybe this helps. I used the data files for some other projects..
http://earth-info.nga.mil/gns/html/
http://geonames.usgs.gov/
LOL
Did you look at the name of the Executive Secretary on that page?
Being dyslexic, I immediately read "You Lost", which seemed ironic
for the USGS.
I know I asked in my post for US State and City database and did not
mention zip codes, but that was something I was after as well.
Strangely enough, the USGS states that it's the U.S. Census Bureau
who keeps the zip codes. But the U.S. Census Bureau says it's the US
Postal Service and the US Postal Service points to private businesses
such as:
http://www.zip-codes.com/
I was almost certain that the UP Postal Service had something, but I
couldn't find it.
I'm not sure where I got my current database, but I think I'll just
stick with it and allow the client to get a subscription for an
update (if they want).
Here's an example of my copy working:

In any event, thanks for the link.
Cheers,
tedd
