I don't know where you got the idea that weight could be added for options. There is nothing I know of that should have given you that impression. As for code, I know of none. It is certainly possible to write, though. You would want to use one of the examples of custom shipping applications. > > Question #3: If not, should I consider moving to modular options? Will > weights work there? Do you have code examples? Modular options don't work for any version of IC. It all depends on what you want to *do* with the weight. Assuming that you want to be calculating shipping with it, you should look at custom shipping routines and expect to do (or hire) some custom code for it. -- Mike Heins Perusion -- Expert Interchange Consulting http://www.perusion.com/ phone +1.513.523.7621 <suppressed> I don't want to get to the end of my life and find I have just lived the length of it.
