Theres a few webservices out there that when you pass a zipcode as a
parameter to it and an interger radius it will return the zipcodes. I have
not used one but I do know there out there. Try to look at UPS, or USPS
they might have something.

Ale:
KJL Software (www.kjlsoftware.com) has several possible solutions for
your request:
1) A datafile containing ZIP Code and Latitude/Longitude coordinates
that are needed to calculate distance
2) a freeware distance calculation DLL that returns the distance
between 2 latitude/longitude coordinate pairs
3) a Store/Dealer Locator system module for IIS websites that can use
MS Access as a database
4) a New product coded in Perl that prtovides Store/Dealer locator
functionality for any website that can execute Perl scripts, using any
one of a number of popular RDBMS products.
