ZIP is pretty much the compression format anyone with Windows is likely to have. RAR is better, but not as many Windows users use it. TAR and GZIP is practically as alien to the common Windows user as a one button mouse. ;) SIT has Stuffit Expander for Windows. Best thing to do is find out what archiving software, if any, the recipient of the file has installed. If it's Windows XP, that has built in support for treating ZIP archives as folders within Windows Explorer. Just doubleclick a ZIP archive then drag files out. See http://www.winzip.com http://www.rarsoft.de http://www.stuffit.com and http://www.tucows.com This site has archiving software for Macintosh plus lots of types of software for several operating systems. ===== "When you are wrestling for possession of a sword, the man with the handle always wins."
