I've downloaded some files from the Education Forum. Some of them are .zip files. What do I need to use them? Hitting fairways and greens!

Joan, there is an UNZIP program in the Archivers library in AmigaUser. I think it is called UNZIP.LHA, but not quite certain. Once you download it, unpack it with LHA as you have been doing with other programs. Put ZIP into your C: or Tools: or Utilities: directory. To unpack things, you just type UNZIP PRGNAME (whatever the download's name is.) —Betty

Betty, The UNZIP program won't unzip the newer .ZIP files. It gives a CRC error and won't unzip that file. James Du Bois via AutoPilot Don't ya just love remote control?

Betty, I am taking the .ZIP files over to a friends house and using his Mac to unzip them. James Du Bois via AutoPilot Don't ya just love remote control?

That's one way! Most of the .ZIP files I need are for MSDOS, and I just do them on my Toshiba laptop. —Betty
