i need to be able to "search" for the zip they enter then pull out state, city, lat, long.

SO for example, user inputs 35004. i output AL,ACMAR, and then tell how far it is from my zip code which is a constant. I dont know how to read through every line to find the zip then extract parts of the line i need to store.

Oh and this is due thursday AHHH!! any help would be great. Thanks
