A mysql db would be good, then just link the tables on the username column. everytime a client adds an address, insert their username into the corresponding link column. You will want to index that column as well, so when you query all a given persons addresses, it is done effieciently. You will have to remember to alter the pages that call this information though, like checkout.html, account.html... etc etc. Also, the back end of IC will need extensive rework (order_view, customer_foo...) There could be a simpler way, but off the top of my head I don't know of it. I don't believe the whole "shipping" information was originally designed to be very modular. I can be wrong though :) Paul PS If I were going to do somehting like this, I would design it in 4.9 _______________________________________________ interchange-users mailing list suppressed http://www.icdevgroup.org/mailman/listinfo/interchange-users
