zc (Zip Code) Processing Code

The zc processing code uses the zcf file to display the city, state, and Zip code. For international zip codes, an additional country file is used. For U.S.A. zip codes, zc displays a standard 5-digit zip code or the zip+4 code.

This processing code is supported only from the VME.

CAUTION

The zcf and country files are opened with the first zc conversion, and left open until logoff. If you have multiple zcf and/or country files (with different contents), the zc processing code always references the first zcf or country file that was opened.
