WINZIP Tutorial

This brief tutorial provides introductory information, but requires that you specify the relevant filenames and directory names. You'll understand it better if you Install Winzip(to decompress Shareware). Please note that, after you install Winzip (or any other decompression program),  when you click on an icon to unzip software, the cursor may not change to an hourglass while the software is being loaded into your decompression program. Please do not be alarmed; your system is not hung. It is just working.

To print the tutorial, click on Print Topic in the Help windows File pull-down menu. The tutorial assumes the following:

•	You know how to use standard Windows features, such as dialog boxes, menus, and the drag and drop interface. If you are not are familiar with these features, please consult your Windows documentation.

•	You are familiar with the concept of archives.

If you are new to the Windows online help system be sure to choose How to Use Help from the Help menu. The time you spend on that will pay off quickly!

Terminology

Archives are files that contain other files. ZIP files are the most common archive format. Typically the files in an archive are compressed. WinZip uses the term Add to mean compress files and add them to an archive. Extract means decompress files in an archive, creating separate files on a disk. Some people use the verbs zip and pack instead of Add, and unzip or unpack instead of extract.

Working with Existing Archives

The first step is to open an archive. Select Open Archive from the WinZip File pull-down menu to activate the standard Open Archive dialog box. Then select the archive you want to open in the Open Archive dialog box. Opening an archive is just like opening a document in Write or a spreadsheet in Excel; the only difference is that you open an archive instead of a document or spreadsheet. Use the Drives and Directories list boxes to select the appropriate directory and click on the archive in the Archive Name list box. Press the OK button when you have made your selection.

Once an existing archive is open you can work with the files in the archive. The files in an archive are listed in a list box in the main WinZip window. You can

•	View a file with the associated program by double clicking on the file in the main WinZip window, or view a file with the built-in text viewer or a viewer of your choice by selecting View from the Actions pull-down menu.

•	Extract the files from an archive to a directory on your hard disk by selecting Extract from the Actions pull-down menu.

•	Install or try out software distributed in the archive.

•	Scroll the list of files in the archive using the scroll bar, or sort the list by file name, file date, or file size using one of the Sort entries in the Options pull-down menu.

Creating New Archives

To create a new archive, select New Archive from the WinZip File pull-down menu. This activates the New Archive dialog box. Type the name of the archive you want to create. Do not enter the name of the files you want to compress. This dialog box works almost like the standard Windows Open dialog box. You can use the Drives and Directories list boxes to choose the drive and directory where the archive will be created. For example, to create an archive on your floppy drive select A: from the Drives drop-down list box. The names of any existing archives on the selected drive and directory will be listed in gray to help you choose a name that is not already in use.

Normally after creating an archive you will want to add files to the archive, so verify that the Add Dialog check box is checked to automatically activate the Add dialog box. Press the OK button to complete your selection. See the next section for instructions on adding files to an archive.

Adding Files to an Archive

You can add files to an existing archive youve opened (as described above in the section Working with Existing Archives) or to a new archive youve created (as described above in the section Creating New Archives). If the Add dialog box is not displayed select Add from the Actions pull-down menu.Error! Bookmark not defined.

In the Add dialog box you can select the files to add to the archive in one of two ways:

1.	Type the name(s) of the file(s) you want to add to the archive. Multiple names can be separated by spaces, for example, *.TXT *.DOC will add all TXT and DOC files.

2.	Click on files listed in the Select Files list box on the right side of the Add dialog box. . Use the Directories/Drives list boxes to choose the drive and directory of the files listed.

When you are done selecting files, press the Add button. Once WinZip finishes adding the files it will update the list of files in the main window to reflect the new files in the archive.

You can also add files to an archive by dragging the files you want to add from the File Manager and dropping them on the WinZip window.

Note: when you add files to an archive the original files on disk are not deleted unless you select Move from the Action drop-down list. However, since the Move action deletes files, practice using test files before using this feature.

Shortcuts:

The WinZip toolbar (below the menu bar) provides shortcuts for many of the menu actions mentioned in the tutorial. The New and Open buttons perform the same function as clicking on New or Open in the File pull-down menu. Similarly, the Add, Extract, and View buttons on the toolbar perform the same action as the equivalent menu entries in the Actions menu.

You can quickly sort the main window by clicking once on the header (e.g. click on Name in the header above the list of files to sort the list by filename).

It is often easier to open an archive by double clicking on the archive in the File Manager, or by dragging the archive from the File Manager to an open WinZip window.

Configuration:

Many WinZip operation can be tailored using configuration options. For example, you can change the default directories for the Extract and Add dialog boxes. Most options are intended for advanced users.

Conclusion:

This concludes the brief tutorial. If you have questions, feel free to contact the author at the address listed in the About dialog box of the program itself.


 Effects Of Installation

Installing Shareware can affect system files and MAY affect other programs. Please exercise caution (back up CONFIG.SYS, WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI and AUTOEXEC.BAT.) before installing Shareware. If you don't know how to back up files, DON'T INSTALL SHAREWARE until you're more comfortable with your Windows skills.


 VBRUN files

If a Shareware description indicates that a program requires VBRUN300.DLL, look to see if you already have a copy of this program in your \WINDOWS or \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.

If VBRUN300.DLL hasn't already been placed there by some other application, copy it from the root directory of this CD-ROM to your \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory. You need only do this once; VBRUN300.DLL will then be available for all future Visual Basic programs to use. The same instructions apply to programs which require VBRUN200.DLL or VBRUN100.DLL.


 Definition Of Shareware

Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to register. Individual programs differ on details--some request registration while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the software to an updated program with printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example, some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee--if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.

After reading the tutorial, Click here to install Winzip on your PC.

Please note that, after installation of Winzip (or any other decompression program you may already have),  when you click on an icon to unzip software, the cursor may not change to an hourglass while the software is being loaded into your decompression program. Please do not be alarmed; your system is not hung. It is just working.

Some of the Shareware and Freeware on this disk comes in what is known as a "self-extracting executable" file, a file with an .EXE extension which, when run from DOS or Windows, decompresses the program files so they can be run.

Most of it comes in the form of .ZIP files, which contain many files compressed together, often with directory information as well as all the files required to install and run an application. Decompressing a zip file requires a separate program. There are many such programs; one Shareware program which performs this task is Winzip, which is available on this CDROM.

It is usually a good idea to create a new directory and place any .EXE or .ZIP files in that directory before decompressing them. That way, all the files associated with a program installation are in one place, and are easy to discard after the installation is complete. You install most Shareware and Freeware by running INSTALL.EXE or SETUP.EXE after decompressing or unzipping the file.
