You guys do have a point.  I shouldn't have been so sanctimonious.

The old NANPA sheet I have had a LATA column in it;  at some point, 
they must have stopped providing it.

You can't resolve a rate center to a LATA per se, but you can resolve 
an NPA to a LATA pretty easily.  However, that won't help you avoid 
edge cases like LATAs that flow across state borders into NPAs that 
are otherwise 99% in some other LATA -- those do happen.  For that, 
you'd need the LERG and/or pooling data.
