Making a store locator

flash (macromedia):
I have been asked to make a store locator within a flash site. I am thinking
that the store data will be in an xml file that the client can easily edit, as
there are not so many stores (100 or so). Then, the site vistitor wil input
their postcode (like Zip but with letters too) and get the nearest store to
them. I am sure this has been done hundreds of times before, anyone any links
to this type of code?

Thanks!!!

Thanks for your reply, I went to the tutorial and downloaded the entire thing
(they have a word file).

I did some other research, I think the Yahoo Maps API is a very interesting
way to display store data. You can see more about this component and how to
implement in your apps at
