You can download it over the internet, or I can send it to you. WinZip takes a binary file, like a scanned image, and shrinks and translates in into text so it can be sent as an email attachment. The recipient will need WinZip to un-shrink and translate the file back into its original binary form. The WinZip program I will send you, if you want it, is also zipped. But it is a special kind of zip file. It's an executable. You put it in the directory where you want the WinZip program to go, and run it from Windows Explorer. It extracts itself from text to binary form. If you would rather download it yourself from the internet using Netscape or other browser, here's the address that will take you to the correct download page I got from Alta Vista... DOWNLOAD.COM -- WinZip (32-bit) download.com -- the way to download software on the Internet. Searchable up-to-date software database of selected software files from CNET. http://www.download.com/PC/Result/TitleDetail/0,4,187-18840-g,501000.html size 13K - 21-Aug-97 You should download it to your "c:\temp\" folder first, then move it to the folder you want. Usually that's "c:\winzip\" -Bill _________________________________________________________________ William Henry Roll Blythe, California [email protected] The Roll Family Genealogy Windmill http://members.aol.com/whroll The genealogy of the ROLL, MANGEL and VAN WOGGELUM families "A thousand candles have burned themselves out; yet I read on."
