Zones problem: Don't want to use Counties(State) within Zone UK

[cornishpirate]

I have my home country, UK, defined as a Zone itself.

 

I have not set up counties (states) as subzones: just don't want them - happy for customers to enter County as text.

 

BUT

 

On address validation, I'm forced to use a non-existent drop-down box! Thought about hacking the code out, but it's Friday!

 

How can I get rid of this drop-down? "ACCOUNT_STATE" (true/false) seems to be linked to this, but what does it mean? Can't find any documentation.

ACCOUNT_STATE is a defined variable in the database table configuration. You set this variable in your Admin panel configuration/customer details/state. If you set this value to false then the dropdown box should not be there.
