Hi Ken, Any ideas on how I can decompress these files with Rev? Ok, stupid question but have you tried the revZip* functions with these files? Also, let me point you to a great utility, 7-zip, which has handled just about every archive I've thrown at it: http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

Thanks. I'd forgotten that the tabs were meant to mimic the host operating system. I really have to do some experimentation in Windows once in a while... I'd like to see that stack Ken Ray made. it would be nice to have something to copy that was made by an appearances guru.
