Hehe - just give me the data. AFAIK you cannot get the zip-code-tables from Sweden for free

Under "Sök postnummer" you can get the zip code using adress or "Postort " (town)

Under "Sök adress" you get the zip code using the Street adress

Under "Ladda ner postnummerkatalogen" you can download the entire catalogue...

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the links, but the database-format is not readable/encrypted Sad

Sent you a list by mail

Very thanks for your Mail. It looks good.

By going throught the Excel-File i saw some duplicates. Please take a look at it and tell me what should be used as City and which Column should be used as State.

Gast

You only need the two first columns. No need for state

No need for State ? I think if we make this it should be work to 100%.

Gast

In sweden states are not used in addresses.
We have some analogy to states, but you wouldn't use it in an address
Anyhow, there is no such info in the file I sent you. The other data is for other purposes

Addresses are written like.

Firstname Lastname
Streetname number
105 10 STOCKHOLM
SWEDEN

@Oré: Your data-source showed me that many citys in france has the same zip-code. Is this correct ? Just want to be sure cause i think its unusual to use the same zip-code for a couple of citys.

Yes it's correct, because little cities in the countryside have the zip-code of a bigger city in proximity (for exemple, Vif is a city, the zip-code is 38450, and there are little cities with the same zip-code, like Les Saillant, Reymure...). But I don't think how to choose which has the priority

OK, please test the database with some citys you know and give feedback if everthing is OK. The list you get on more than one result is unsorted - this will be fixed in the next minor update.

Seems to work...
Except it says Schweden instead of Sweden (or maybe Sverige as we say in Sweden)

Nice!
