I have downloaded some ZIPPED files that I can't unzip. When I use PKUNZIP, it says it doesn't know how to handle the files. What should I do, do I need a newer version of PKUNZIP? —Matt

Matt, Most of the zip files I've encountered on CIS use v 1.1, however many BBS's use one of the more recent versions (2.04e or 2.04g). This may be the problem, i.e., 2.xx zips are not backwards compatible. I'm not sure where to find newer Zip tools on CIS…maybe the IBMCOM forum. JDH

Hey Guys… Pkzip v 2.04c and I think e were loaded on s9 of acad forum about 6-8 weeks ago. they may still be in s9 or have been reloacted to their "home" library…Check it out.. Roger C@V

Get PK204g.EXE from either GO ACAD (What's New!) or GO PCVENC (PKWare lib). Dave
