| I was wondering if anyone knows a way to link to the tracking numbers generated
through Paypal shipping, so when I send out the "drive through" notification
it will automatically include the tracking number without my having to type it
in manually each time.
Thanks!

You can copy/paste it into the drive thru message.
Or add the trackingnumber to the field on the orders page and add the macrotag
to your drive thru message.

| The point is not to have to copy/paste it every time. Is there a way that it
will add automatically by linking to the information on Paypal?

Add the number to the Tracking Number field for the order. You can add that field
to your Orders Received page, or use the Edit Order function. Than add this macro
to the Thank you, Drive Thru! message template:
Tracking number:

«ORDERTRACKNO» between simple chevrons (lesser-than / greater-than) instead of
double chevrons.

There is not, PayPal doesn't update the BL order

You'll likely need to make something custom to do the API calls required,
or use a type of BrickLink specific SaaS/product that can do this.
