Hi Jim,

I suppose I can, but I was trying to make as few changes to the foundation 
(4.8.5) structure as possible, and currently everytime [shipping] is called 
it fetches the results directly from UPS -- it should only call UPS once, or 
twice then pull the values from the session variables.

Is there a way for [shipping] to check the local tables if a value comes 
back zero from UPS?

-Steve
