Create Geometry with x, y, and Distance

DaviKucharski

Is there a way to create a geometry object with a latitude, longitude and a distance (in miles). I would then use that object to query the zip codes within that geometry.

In my application, there is an option where the user clicks on the map. The application then asks for a number, in miles, to go out. The system should then find all of the zip codes that fall within that number from the point the user click on the map.

So I have the point they click on the map (x,y). I have the number they entered in for a radius. I need the system to create a geometry with this information.
