I finally got First Class to show up as a choice by editing the following line.
const DomesticServiceTypes="Express,Priority,Media,First Class"
Oddly enough if you change the order it doesnt work.
My problem is this. First class shipping stops at 13 Ounces. If my orders are over 13 ounces the shipping script gives and error about the order being over 13 ounces and fails. I would like the script to not check for first class if the order is over 13 ounces. Is there a way to do this?
Another oddity that was asked in another thread is that the script total ignores the internation shipping line. you can add or remove any of the choices you want but the script still gives you all the choices including ones you can't use. it makes it very confusing for the Customers.

Hi Revrat,
I fought with this one for a while:
Here's the solution for the First Class over 13 ounces...Look in the file: USPOSTALINTERFACE.ASP
Add the small section where it starts with "if servicetype="First Class". This will exit the routine if 1) the weight is 1 pound or greater, or 2) the total ounces are greater than 13.
Sub GenerateLocalPackage(msg, i, servicetype, weight, Shiptozip, ocountry, shipfromzip, ounces)
dim machine
machine="FALSE"
If i=2 then
machine="TRUE"
end if
if servicetype="First Class" then
if weight>0 then
exit sub
end if
if ounces>13 then
exit sub
end if
end if
msg=msg & "<Package ID=""" & i & """>"
msg=msg & "<Service>" & ServiceType & "</Service><ZipOrigination>" & shipfromzip & "</ZipOrigination><ZipDestination>" & shiptozip
msg=msg & "</ZipDestination><Pounds>" & weight & "</Pounds><Ounces>" & ounces & "</Ounces><Container>None</Container>"
msg=msg &"<Size>REGULAR</Size><Machinable>" & machine & "</Machinable></Package>"
end sub
The second part of the problem is considerably more complicated. Unfortunately, the USPS does NOT allow you to send up the types of service you want for international. You just get them all. I ended up having to write several different routines that filter out the services I didn't want. You can set up the services in the USPOSTALCONFIG.ASP file, but there's no code in the VP-ASP to filter out the services you don't want.
Hope this helps a little...
Best,
Phil
