Thank you Gregg, I will go to bed with a sense of knowing something new
again today !  :)

I guess that's why I can get the files uncompressed and then lauch any
applications that was inside the archive.  So I have learned that if you
want to store some files on a PC other then text and so on, you better get
it stuffed !  until somebody gets to write that shareware, I don't have the
expertise so .. it won't be me !!

I wish somebody out there hears you ... I would be the first one to support
that shareware !!  

Thank you

Jeff
