---USING WINZIP--- Unzipping Files -- If you're like me you'll be doing more unzipping than zipping. Fortunately, it couldn't be easier to unzip files with WinZip: 1) Open Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) and find the zipped file you want to unzip. 2) In the left frame of Explorer find or make a folder to unzip the zipped file. I made a work folder I use just for unzipping. 3) Now, get the zipped file opened in the right frame of Explorer and the folder in which you want to unzip it in the left frame. Make sure both are visible on the screen to make things easy. 4) Now RIGHT-drag the zipped file to the folder and release the right mouse key. From the pop up menu select the first zip option -- "Extract to C:\name of work folder". You right drag by holding down the right mouse button while dragging instead of the left one. This gives you a pop up menu that offers options instead of just moving the file. WinZip adds the unzipping options to this menu. 5) There's another unzipping option that comes in handy if you're going to unzip a lot of differnt zips into one work folder. Select the second unzip option from the right drag pop up menu -- "Extract to C:\name of work folder\name of file without extension". This causes WinZip to make a new folder withing the work folder named after the name of the zipped file. This helps keep things organized when you're unzipping a lot of stuff and don't want to make a zillion work folders. Zipping Files -- I zip files using the WinZip Classic interface, not the wizard. It's quicker and more flexible once you get used to it. If your WinZip opens with the Wizard, just click the WinZip Classic button to get to the main screen. 1) Get your files together in a single folder. You can include as many files and subfolders as you want. 2) Now open WinZip and get to the "Classic" interface. Start a new zip file by either clicking File|New Archive or by clicking the big "New" button that has a globe on it. 3) A "Save" dialog will open. This concerns the new zip file you're making, not the files you want to zip. Name your new .zip file and make sure that the "File Type" is set to zip files. Now use the dialog to select a folder to put this new file into. It doesn't have to be the same folder as the files to be zipped. I generally put it in another empty work folder. Select a drive and folder and click "OK". 4) Now another dialog will appear to let you select the files you want zipped. You can add files one or a few at a time from every drive and folder you have, but it's easier if you've already copied the files in a work folder that's easy to find. Select the files you want to zip. You can use "Shift" and "CTRL" for multiple selects. Now click "OK" and WinZip will zip them into a zip file and put them in the folder you selected in the first dialog box. 5) If you've got a lot of files and subfolders, you can use the "Add With Wildcards" button to select every file in the folder you've opened in the second dialog. To add subfolders, as well as files, check the "Add Subfolders" check box right below the "Add With Wildcards" button. I use this feature a lot. 6) After WinZip is done zipping your files, it will present a little report in its main screen. This shows what files were zipped and how much they were compressed. Now you've got your zipped file. Using WinZip To Archive On Floppy Disks -- This is how you can save a large program or a number of files on a multiple set of floppies. Make sure you've got plenty of floppies and labels. Don't let multiple spanned floppies get out of order. 1) Get the files you want to archive in a single folder on your C drive. This saves some searching later on. You can add subfolders, too. 2)Make sure you have one floppy disk for each megabyte of data you want to save. That way you'll know you have more than enough floppies. You don't want to run out in the middle of archiving and waste your time. 3) Open WinZip Classic and start a new archive as above. Select your floppy (generally A:) drive as the destination drive. Don't worry about making a folder, just select the drive and continue to name the new file and finally click "OK". 4) Now the second dialog opens and wants you to select the files you want to zip. Select the files as in a regular session and select the "Include Subfolders" if needed. 5) Now look at the drop down boxes at the lower left and find the one for Multiple Disk Spanning. It should be set for "Automatic". This means that WinZip will automatically ask you for another floppy when one is full. 6) If you're not sure if your floppies are empty or formatted, you might want to select "Automatic + Wipe disck first prompt". Now WinZip will format the disks for you. It's quicker to do this in Windows Explorer before zipping files. 7) Now click "Add with Wildcards" and all of the files and subfolders will be compressed and Winzip will put them on your floppies. When one floppy is full, another will be asked for. It is very important TO LABEL THESE DISKS AND KEEP THEM IN ORDER. Otherwise extracting them will be almost impossible. I number mine beginning with 1,2,3,... The first and last floppies of an archive are extremely important as they include the file and extraction information WinZip needs to unzip the files later. I always mark them with a big FIRST and LAST. 8) When your finished, WinZip displays the same window as before with the files that were zipped and the compression ratio of each. Extracting Zip Files From Multiple Spanned Floppies -- 1) This is a little easier than making the floppies. Insert the first floppy of an archive in drive A:. Open Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) and click on A: to display the file in the right frame. 2) Now select a folder to unzip the archive in on your hard drive. 3) Right drag the file to the folder and select "Extract to C:\name of work folder" from the pop up menu that appears when you releas the right mouse button. 4) WinZip will open and read the beginning of the file and see it's a multiple disk span. It will ask for the LAST floppy in the set. It reads some stuff from the last floppy and then asks for the first floppy again. Now it starts extracting each floppy in order. The floppies MUST BE IN THE SAME ORDER THAT THEY WERE ZIPPED IN. Label and number your floppies' tags. 5) When the last floppy is extracted a finished box opens and your zip file is now extracted to your hard drive.
