Reply: (edit)WinZip is a Windows program. You can upzip those *.zip files in DOS mode using pkunzip.exe
You can download it from:
http://www.pkware.com/shareware/download/pk250dos.html or ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/arcers/pk250dos.exe The simtel.net ftp site is slow, it'll take 30 or more seconds before the download begins. the download package includes pkzip.exe for creating zip archives and pkunzip for unzipping them. type in pkunzip /?
for help.

UNZIP sample.zip a:\ if direct to a floppy disk. If you want to do more get PKZIP as Preston writes! Mick C
