CDXZipStream

 

Welcome to the CDX Technologies December 2018 Newsletter

  

This month we cover a new, free Excel template for finding ZIP Codes associated with city/state lists.  Also, to ring in the new year, we are offering our Geographic Access Analysis template for $99.95 (regularly $149.95) until 

January 31.

 

Here are some of our latest blog postings:

CDXZipStream Bulk FindZip Report Template

    

We've added a new template to our suite of CDXZipStream tools for FindZip Analysis.  This template can take a long list of city and state combinations and produce a report of all matching ZIP Codes.  The template can be downloaded for free from the templates page of our website.  It is compatible with both the trial and registered versions of CDXZipStream.

 

While you can always copy the original FindZip formula to analyze a list, this template streamlines the application.  Rather than returning all ZIP Codes in a single string (as the formula does), each ZIP Code is output to a separate cell in the template.  This makes it simple to copy the lists to another application.  The template can handle up to 250 ZIP Codes per city/state entry.  As with our other templates, you will see a status indicator showing the progress of the FindZip calculations in the lower left status bar. 

 

Here is an example of the report output:

 

 

With the release of this application we now have templates that automate each CDXZipStream function.  You can download this new FindZip tool and all of the other templates here.  We recommend the use of these templates rather than copying formulas when analyzing long lists. We also provide video tutorials demonstrating how to use many of the available templates.

 

Special Offer - Geographic Access Analysis Template

    

To ring in the new year, we are offering our Geographic Access Analysis template for $99.95 (regularly $149.95) until January 31.    

 

This Microsoft Excel template can take a matrix of X and Y locations (these could be stores, customers, warehouses, delivery points, etc.) and create a comprehensive report showing which X locations are closest to all Y location targets, or vice versa.  It works with the CDXZipStream Bing version or higher.   

 

The template first automatically determines if each address can be matched to a location in either Bing Maps or Microsoft MapPoint; you can select which mapping source to use.  If a match is found, CDXZipStream geocodes the location to determine its latitude and longitude.   These points of latitude and longitude are used to calculate straight-line distances between all combinations of locations.   

 

Here is a quick look at how it works:
