Qualex Consulting Services, Inc. has just released an updated version of our
SAS Tool, "ZipCoder."

ZipCoder is a SAS program which displays all U.S. zip codes, cities, area
codes, plus basic 2000 and 1990 census data for counties and states.

Current as of June 2003, ZipCoder includes over 42,000 zip codes and has
powerful searching capability.

Using 2000 and 1990 US census data, basic county and state demographic data
are provided, including population, average household income, and estimated
house values and household income.

With ZipCoder you can create graphs to compare demographic data between two
states or to display high/low state comparisons. ZipCoder also allows you to
easily copy graphs to other Windows applications. You can also query county
and state census information.

All tables and search results can be saved to a SAS data set or exported to
HTML, RTF, or PDF.

ZipCoder automatically provides the mileage distance between selected two
points. You can even view maps based on zip code, city or state using
MapQuest (Internet connection required).

Context-sensitive help is included.

This new version of ZipCoder is for SAS Version 8 only. It includes many new
and updated features over the older version for SAS 6.12 which is still
available.

ZipCoder is free for personal and internal business use only.
