Winzip: Hints and Tips
Hints and Tips
Here are the hints and tips displayed by the "Tip of the Day" dialog box:
* The Tip of the Day dialog box is normally displayed when you start WinZip but are not automatically opening a Zip file. You can change this option so tips are never displayed, or always displayed when WinZip is started.
If you turn the Tip of the Day off and later want to restore it, select Tip of the Day from the WinZip Help pull-down menu, then select from the combo box at the bottom of the dialog box.
* If you are new to Zip files, you can use the Wizard interface to walk you through the process of unzipping or installing software in Zip files. Select Wizard from the WinZip File menu to activate the Wizard.
* You can add, remove, or reorder buttons on the WinZip toolbar by right clicking on the toolbar and choosing Select Buttons.
* WinZip's toolbar buttons look much better if your display is in high-color mode.
Click "Control Panel" in the Start menu's Settings entry. Double-click "Display" and select the Settings tab. Choose "High Color" mode for Color Palette (under Windows NT 4.0 select 65536).
* You can use Quick View, the optional Windows file viewing utility, to view files without associations. If Quick View is not installed, see the section of the Help file titled of the Help file "Installing QuickView". To use Quick View with WinZip, select Configuration from WinZip's Options menu, click the Program Locations tab, type "quikview" (without the quotes) in the Default association field, and click OK.
* Learn to use the Windows help system! You will quickly make up for the time you spend learning it by being more productive in all your Windows applications. To get started select How to Use Help from the Help menu.
* For a Brief Tutorial on WinZip, select Brief Tutorial from the WinZip Help pull-down menu.
* For quick zipping and unzipping, you can right-click on a file listed in Explorer and choose Add to Zip or Extract To from Explorer's context menu.
* You can unzip all files from a Zip without leaving the Explorer. Use the right mouse button to drag and drop a Zip file from an Explorer window to any folder, then choose Extract To from the context menu. Be sure to use the right mouse button while dragging.
* You can create Zip files in the Explorer: right click in the Contents pane, then select New and WinZip File. An empty Zip file will be created in the current folder.
* Mailing your Zip files is easy! If you are using a MAPI-compatible mail system, you can mail Zip files using the Mail Archive entry in the WinZip File menu. Or, click the WinZip status line, drag it, and drop it on your e-mail program.
* If you usually use the same folders when opening, extracting, or adding files, specify those folders in the Configuration | Folders dialog box.
* You can run your virus scanner on the files inside downloaded Zip files. Choose Virus Scan from WinZip's Actions menu.
* If you need to send files to users who may not have an unzip utility, try "WinZip Self-Extractor Personal Edition" (included with WinZip). The self-extractor makes files that unzip themselves. First create a zip file, then select Make .Exe File from the WinZip Actions menu.
* To change the default WinZip window size and position to the current window size and position, choose Save Settings Now from the Options menu.
* To display details about the open Zip file (for example, the date the Zip file was last modified or the name of the folder containing the Zip file), click on the WinZip status line or select Properties from the WinZip File menu.
* You can make a Zip file that spans multiple disks. Simply create a Zip file on a removable disk, then add files to the Zip as you normally would. If the disk fills up while files are being added, you will be prompted for another disk. Just insert the next disk and click the OK button.
* The file listing for an archive can be quickly sorted by any of the fields displayed in the file listing. Just click on any column title to sort on it.
* You can interrupt an archive operation by clicking anywhere in the WinZip window. This will activate the "Operation Interrupted" dialog box.
* You can quickly extract files from a Zip file by dragging the files from WinZip to any folder or Explorer window (or even to the desktop).
* You can quickly add files to a Zip file by dragging the files from any folder or Explorer window to WinZip.
* WinZip has many features that make it easy to work with files downloaded from Internet, bulletin boards, and online services like America Online and CompuServe. For a list of hints, see the Help file section "Hints For Working With Downloaded Files".
* Besides Zip files, WinZip processes many other formats, including TAR, Z, GZ, TGZ, CAB, UUencode, BinHex, and MIME.
* If you can't remember where you put your Zip files, you can use the Favorite Zip Folders feature to find them. Select Favorite Zip Folders from the WinZip File menu.
* You can easily view files in a Zip file by dragging them to an application or a shortcut to an application.
* You can easily print files by dragging them to a printer or shortcut to a printer. (To print a list of files in a Zip, select Print from the File menu.)
* Zip files opened with WinZip are added to the Start menu's Documents list. To quickly open Zips that you have recently worked with, select Documents from the Start menu.
* You can add selected files to a Zip directly from the Explorer with complete control over the options. RIGHT-click on any file (or selected group of files) and choose Add To Zip from the context menu.
* Answers to frequently asked questions are available by selecting Frequently Asked Questions from WinZip's Help menu.

A lot of us who are under constant pressure tend to eat too much and do not take good care of their bodies.
Then you'll have no trouble motivating yourself to do it. Nothing is more motivating than seeing physical proof of results.
