Can I make PayPal show "shipping" charge instead of "shipping and handling"?

I've set up my base shipping charges in the eStore settings (I'm not using the PayPal shipping calculation settings) and it's working fine. The challenge is that in California we have to charge sales tax on shipping if it's lumped together with "handling" charges, but not if it's separated. So, I don't want to list any handling fees, just shipping.

When I run a test of my checkout with PayPal, the shipping charge shows up as "shipping and handling." Is there a way that I can make it list the charge as "Shipping" only?

Thanks!

This all started because PayPal's shipping variable for the whole cart doesn't seem to work and they suggest using the shipping and handling variable so I started using that in eStore :)

Anyway, There is another way that you can get around this. Open the "eStore_payment_submission.php" file and look for the following line:
```
$myPaypal->addField('handling_cart', $shipping);
```
once you find it replace it with the following:
```
$myPaypal->addField('shipping_1', $shipping);
```
That should make it to show the value as only "Shipping" rather than "Shipping and Handling".
