		+	=== How do I make FedEx do not show estimated shipment arrival date along with the shipping rates? ===
		+
		+	FedEx returns the estimated date when the shipment will arrive along with the shipping rates. I don't want to display those.
		+
		+	For example - now it says:
		+
		+	* FedEx 2Day® - Mon Apr 30 $25.01
		+	* FedEx Ground® - 1 day $19.85
		+
		+	All I want is:
		+
		+	* FedEx 2Day® $25.01
		+	* FedEx Ground® $19.85
		+
		+	How do I do that?
		+
		+	<u>Solution:</u>
		+
		+	1) Modify "<xcart_dir>/shipping/mod_FEDEX.php", find the following line of code:
		+
		+	<pre>
		+	$estimated_time = func_fedex_get_estimated_time($entry, $prefix);
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	and change it to:
		+
		+	<pre>
		+	$estimated_time = "";//func_fedex_get_estimated_time($entry, $prefix);
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	2) Make sure the "Delivery time" field is empty for all FedEdx shipping methods on the [[X-Cart:Shipping_Settings#Shipping_Methods \| "Shipping methods"]] page.
