I have a list of UK Counties available if anyone would like to make use of them.
I have the .zip file containing a .csv & .sql version on my support site. (That way I will be able to keep it updated if any errors are found or improvements made.
Here is the link... http://www.dsl24-7.net/support/index.php?action=file_library
The file makes a number of assumptions as follows: UK = Country ID 77 Ireland = Country ID 102 Northern Ireland = Country ID 248 Show for user is set to ON You may also want or need to edit the "state_id" & "state_code" to suit your own database.
To use this file I deleted all the default US States - renamed all States labels to County / Counties, then imported the csv file into the va_states table through phpMyAdmin.
This file wil be useful for anyone who only sells to the UK and Ireland. With some work it may help others who just need to add UK Counties to an existing installation.
Enjoy! Regards David (citrusuk.net)

No, it's an open download, just click the link in the ViArt Section. Please post back and let us all know if the file is of any help.

David, Yes it has and thank you very much. I'm looking at importing it in our next site revision.
Has ViArt made any noises about a general revision to accomodate sub-country areas as this would be useful?

Hi picstart,
It's actually the language file /messages/en/admin_messages.php You will find other language files in the same folder.
But you can actually edit all these from the admin control panel anyway.
Do NOT change the CONSTANT only edit the MESSAGE part. you can search for the field label ie. state and it makes it very easy to edit the required label.
Regards David.
