Hi Bob,
check out the UPS site :
www.ec.ups.com You'll have to sign up to be a developer of their software, which is a no brainer. But it will give you access to the following tools, they may have more since I signed up since April. What I have used worked great and was very fast in returning the XML strings.
UPS Tracking XML
UPS Tracking HTML
UPS Rates & Service Selection HTML
UPS Address Validation XML
UPS Time in Transit XML
UPS Rates & Service Selection XML

>Hello all,

>Anybody using VFP to check tracking of packages shipped by UPS. They seem to offer several tools to do so and I am wondering what sucess others have had with this. It seems you can send a CGI request to their website then parse the result, prep an email and parse the return email, or send a CSV file and get one returned. They also have some API samples, but I didn't see any VFP examples and it looks more cumbersome than the other methods.
