Assuming that you installed AbleCommerce with the default list of countries, you just edit the ship zone, choose the option "Selected Countries" and using the Control key pick each one. It can be a tedious task because the list refreshes to show any available provinces.

Thanks,

This option does allow me to select the countries. I am just able to highlight the countries appearing one below the other :(

I would like to that you know it:
the custumer may be from japan(for example) but he would like to ship to US. On the checkout page you can find the button - shippng the same like billing address!
I do not really how it working!
And I have the same problem - we ship to US and canada only but cuctumer may be from diffetrent country!

I see now - there is a flaw in the UI. Once you select a few countries, the page does this refresh, or processing, and the list for selected countries goes back to the beginning (showing Afghanistan through Antigua each time). You have to keep re-scrolling down to get more countries added to the list.

I am going to add it as a bug, but however annoying it may be, it will still be faster to just make your selections than wait for this bug to be fixed.

Thanks for letting us know.
