That was the file! I guess I missed it (my eyes did start crossing at a certain point.) It's installed, as I said, but I don't know how to integrate it.
Not being very SQL literate, I'm learning an awful lot these last couple of days. If you can tell me what I'm missing, I would greatly appreciate it.
And thanks for pointing me to that file. I did searches, advanced searches, manual searches, and it just didn't come up!

Russ,
The the admin under tools is an option called install sql patches.
You can either copy and paste the contents of that file into the text box or you can upload the file there to be run.
A few things before you do this.
Do a back up of you database first. That file is somewhat old and I do not know how current it is or if the structure is compatible with the current version of the mod.
You might want to try contacting the origional author to see if they have a current file they might be will to share with you instead of trying to work with a file that is quite old.
Good Luck!

Hi,
I ended up just re-doing the whole tax thing - it went to 4 pages. I posted this in the forum, but didn't get any replies. Perhaps you could advise me on the correct procedure? Thanks - btw, the add-on works perfectly!
======================
I'm using LadyHLG's Local Tax add-on. I just spent a considerable amount of time entering in the NY State sales tax, divided by county (ordered by zip codes with the message "xxx county & NYS Sales Tax).
It was a horrible boring nasty bit of work and I don't want anyone else to have to go through it. How can I share my work so other people can use it?
Hi,
I am using Zen Cart v1.3.8a/v1.3.8
does the LadyHLG module still work or do I not need it with this version?
if I do where can I find the 2.2 version?
Thanks.
Russ,
If you like to you can offer your sql download here in this thread, its where most people do, or I guess you could submit it to the downloads section of this site. At least that way the sql could be easily found and people wouldn't have to guess as to how old it is or its compatibility.
Let me know if you need help with this and thank-you for the contribution!
webman1,
The Local Sales Tax Mod works with version v1.3.8a/v1.3.8.
You can download version 2.3 and 2.2 HERE.

Thanks - I hate to say it, but I do need help with that. How do I best export it so that it can be used by someone else without issue? I'm not even sure how it works - that is, will it automatically get put into the right table on a different database?
My table (for your add-on) is tax_rates_local, which I renamed from zen_tax_rates_local. No idea why it added "zen_" to the name, as there was no other table by that name.
Anyway, your help is, as always, greatly appreciated!

Using zen cart 1.3.8a. Want to use local sales tax module. current download v. 2.3 is upgrade to v. 2.2. Told to load v. 2.2 first but can not find where to download original v. 2.2. Any suggestions (or link to appropriate site) appreciated.
gallantwarrior,
Version 2.2 is available in the downloads where you found version 2.3. Just scroll down a bit and look for version 2.2 at the bottom of the info it says:
2.2 Download includes files for New Install and Upgrade files for version 2.0a and up.

webman1,
The "suburb" field is the second address field in the customer address info. In the past, some people have set that up to use as a county field, but it is not used as that by default.
Russ,
You need to export the entire table and data into an sql file using whatever sql interface you prefer. (I use a program called SQLyog).
The "zen_" is a table prefix, some people use them, some do not, but when exporting for others to use you do not want it on there, so the table name should just be "tax_rates_local".
Does that help?
LadyHLG
so what do you suggest for NY? is there a way to add a field or change that second address field name?Quote:
