Postcode Search

[Dom Spencer \(N e-site\)]

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your reply to my post.

I've got to confess I'm still pretty confused, I might be a bit out of my
depth.

What I have is an extensive list of suburbs and postcodes compiled in Excel.
What I am wanting to do is create a search form based upon entering a
postcode or even a suburb name into the form. The search would then get the
url allocated to the specific postcode or suburb.

I know how to create a drop down menu that could do this however I feel it
would look messy, and the process of individually inputting the data would
be time consuming. So my question is this, is it possible to make a one line
FrontPage search form that can be married to the data I have already
compiled in excel?

Thank you for taking the time to read this correspondence, any assistance
you could give me would be greatly appreciated.

Dom Spencer
