Any way to get all services and rates back from shipping API's...???

When going through the shipping calculator wizard you have to specify which service type you want (Ground, Express, etc.)

Is there any way using this extension that you can just get the entire array of services and their rates back for any given shipment request? This way I can load it into a drop-down and let the buyer easily see rates for each service and select that way?

Any information on that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

This is not supported with power store.

You would need to hand code the shipping rate lookup to loop through each of the service / service type combination and store the rate in a new session variable, then select which session variable to use based on the selection made in the select list.

this would require some significant hand coding to accomplish.
