Hi Estelita,

With Windows Vista Home Premium you don't need a third party program for 
creating a zipped folder.  Simply move to the folder where you want to 
create a zipped folder and make sure not to select a file.  JAWS should say 
"not selected" when you move into the folder.  Before using any navigational 
keys press the Alt key to get to the menu bar.  use down arrow to move to 
the "new" choice.  use the right arrow to move into the submenu for the 
"new" choice and then use up or down arrow keys to move to the "create 
compressed (zipped) folder" choice and press the enter key.  Type the name 
of your zip folder and press enter.

You can then open your zipped folder and use copy and paste commands to move 
files into it.

Remember that many E-mail providers have file size limitations.  You might 
consider a different method of getting files to your recipients if E-mail 
size limitations are a problem.  Uploading files to a site such as SendSpace 
is an option, or of course such things as FTP or VPN, etc.

Take care.  Have a nice long weekend!
