Yes, very irritating. Even though they put in a new policy to make all the zip files conform to a standard, they never did ask us merchants to go back and fix the old files. At least, no one ever asked me. Now we're so used to them all working properly, when we hit an old one, it makes things head-achey. I don't know how to fix an existing one, except to extract it, fix the file structure, and re-compress it... which kind of defeats the purpose. Unless you archive your files, in which case it might be nice to fix them for yourself before burning them to a CD. Kellee
