CDXZipStream can now be configured to use postal code databases for other countries as a substitute for the default US zip code database. All of the CDXZipStream built-in functions which use the local database (such as CDXZipCode, CDXDistance and CDXRadius) will be able to access this data. You must have CDXZipStream version 5.1 or later or the current demo to use this feature.

To install, download the desired postal code zip file above and extract the contained db file to a known location on your computer. Start Excel and in the CDXZipStream top level menu press "Account" and then the "Upload Manually" button. Select the db file in the file dialog which follows and press "Open". Your database will then be updated with the desired country data.
