Hi Perry.

I got a Fdex account number. I downloaded and installed API.
I'm preparing to submitt a Subscription request to receive a final code:
Test meter.
Besides I have documentation about Fedex tagged transactions and XML
transactions.
No VBA example exists (only VBS).
I'd like to see it one to verify my work. My goal is to send transactions to
track packages shipment by Office applications.

Thanks for your answer.

Regards

Filippo

If y're speaking about Fedex, I'm aware y're trying to do
tracking/tracing...

But, it all comes down to data manipulation ...
Fedex most likely will use the EDI 210 interfacing standard.
( if that hasn't been changed to XML in the meantime ...)

If you don't know what the file format of EDI 210 looks like, you can
absolutely walk
up to yr local Customs office to help you out.
Based on this EDI 210 file format protocol, you can set up yr VBA import
mechanism.

Can't tell you what EDI 210 looks like nowadays, so guess you'll have to
wander around Google (or Customs)
.... unless someone in this group can help you out ....

First: get confirmation from Fedex that they're using EDI 210 as interfacing
protocol.

FedEx uses ANSI X12 214s for tracking, plus there are proprietary
formats being utilized. i would contact your local FedEx Rep for
details on EDI transactions.
