    Hi,

    I have a database with UK postcodes and their latitude and longitude data.

    What I want to do is have a search on my website and where a user can enter a postcode and select a radius like 5 miles. Then I want the search to only bring up companies from my database that are within this 5 miles radius.

    Anyone got any idea how to calculate that?
