GPS, Zip Code DB

Hello, I am searching for a database that I can write a PHP
application against. I am not looking for bulky packages, or anything
fancy or maps, ... just some raw SQL data I can mix & match from
tables, ... stuff like Zip codes, Latitude and Longitude, and any
other basic address & coordinate info. I can cross reference and tie
into..... anything that can help me. Any ideas?

Thank you in advance for help. Best wishes, Sara

Do you mean a ready populated data-base?

If not then MySQL seems to be something of a standard, I have managed to
install and use it. I am also having some success writing to an Access
data-base.

I am sure that will help the OP enormously :-)

I use the google geolocation functions. I submit a location (in
any of a number of ways) and google sends back the lat/lon and
other data.

If this would serve, further details on request.
