Help with Configuration of a Shipping Zone for a City

Wondering if someone can help me.

I need to setup special type of deliveries within Greater Vancouver, Canada.
I wanted to know if there can be the use of a wild cards for postal codes in Canada
The format of postal code in Canada are for example V5Z1Y3
All postal codes in Canada follow the same sequence alpha-number-alpha-number-alpha-number
The first 3 digits (alpha-number-alpha) are the most important as they tell you what city their in, the rest can be ignored, too specific for what they are needed.

Having explained this, does anyone know if I can just enter, in the SHIPPING ZONE/POSTAL CODE AREA, the first three digits, and then go on to the next three digits,

V5Z, V5Y,...

or can i do V5Z*,V5Y*

or do actually need to do <6digit postal code>,<6digit postal code>

Thanks,


Serge

You can make use of * wild card, when editing shipping zone hold you mouse pointer on balloon symbol next to Postal Code(s): text then read tooltip with information and example about using * wild card.
