I downloaded the A-Z alphabet prop in Free Stuff and all I got was a file that says "A-Z.rar." That is a new sort of file for me to work with in Poser. Is it a Prop file? What do I need to know about it. Where do I place it?
Thanks in advance for any info and advice.

Its an archive file similar to ZIP for details see:-

Extract using WinRAR or similar

Hope that helps.

A .rar file is a compressed file or collection, similar to a .zip file. The best package to use to decompress it is Winrar, available for free at www.rarlab.com.
Hope this helps,

Hi!
If you got yourself WinRar and have it installed, do the following:
1st you can check if the Filepath INSIDE the Archive is correct.
Just doubleclick the A-Z.rar....when WinRar opens it and you see a Folder called RUNTIME inside... then its fine.
Close the Archive... take it to your Main Poserfolder and drop it there.
Now rightclick the A-Z.rar and command "EXTRACT HERE".
After that youre done.... if the content is a figure, youll find it in "Figures"... if the content is a prop, yoyou know where you can find it too.
But IF you check that Archive and you see NO Runtimefolder inside... you have to extract it anywhere, and bring the content manually to the folders.
