Well Jeffrey!!!!, Tell me it is really you 🙂 Yes, I know that and that works fine if It was to be done on a computer that you are sitting in front of or had the stuff on a disk to pop into the computer. But this is to be d/l'd to others that may know absolutely nothing about how to unzip a program or even what a zipped program is. So it has to be something that will play by typing its name. OK , example. You know nothing about computers except how to turn them on and mouse through windows. Now you venture out to say CIS and see a graphic file that you want to look at. No where in your experience have you had to do anything but mouse a file and it runs. Now you get a file that has a .zip extension. You mouse it to death, and nothing happens. Ok suppose someone tells you that you have to look at this file in DOS. So you go to DOS and type its name and again nothing happens. (you say..well DOOM word when I do that !) SO you say 'all this stuff is for the BIRDS!' and delete the file. But if you have a file that is an .exe file and you are in DOS and type its name…it then gives you what you were after…a flick to view. That is why I want something that will play when its name is typed. GEE! Glad you are still around and one piece. Have missed you :)………………………Jane
