What countries could the data be coming from? Different places have
different arrangements; US ZIP codes are 00000\-9999, but if you're dealing
with Canadian, UK, and other postal codes it gets very complicated very
fast! If you are going to have a whole range of them, and not few enough
just to create separate fields for each type, all you can do is have a text
field and make sure you input carefully, otherwise you'll need a lot of code
to cover every possibility.
