    @Max.K..

    I recall a similar thread somewhere on this forum....   Basically .. if you store your addresses as "locations", you have access to the lat / long..  You can then wrap your head around the math documented here.. 

    https://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/latlong.html

     

    There are also third party APIs that can do this for you.. such as but not limited to

    https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/distance-matrix/intro

     

    @Birger... if you get this put into a solution ... a SHARE via the Webinar databases would make you more of a hero than you alrady are! ;)
