Hi Bobby, Where does one get PowerDesk? Does it work with Windows 98? One of the problems that has to be faced is: Can all users unzip the file in the proper way? Almost everyone can unzip files. How many can unzip them when they have special features. If I am going to make a package available, I want it available in a format that EVERYBODY can use. What is the best way to do that?

I can do this with PowerDesk, and I used to do it with PKZIP and LHARC. You'd use "relative paths" to save the DrawGraphics directory, for instance, which (if I'm understanding the instructions below) would contain FrontEnd\Palettes, FrontEnd\StyleSheets and English\Documentation. Then you'd unzip that file into the Applications folder. When you unzip, there's again an option... to keep or discard paths. You'd keep them, of course. Bobby
