I read somewhere, in the last day or so, that the Stuffit version of "zip" loses resource forks; the Apple version preserves them when you "open" the zip archive in Finder. However, if the zip archive is unpacked by a Windows unzip program, the result is unusable. This is my memory of things I read and not proven fact. However, I can report that I zipped a file using Finder, sent it to a Windows user, and they were unable to read it. -- Microsoft MVP for Entourage/OE/Word (MVPs are volunteers) Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Entourage FAQ site: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> AppleScripts for Outlook Express and Entourage: <http://members.thinkaccess.net/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/Scripts/> Entourage Help Pages: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
