[HM] Opening .zips - thanks

[Jacqueline at SOLUTIONS]

Thanks to all. Brian, that was it. I finally realized that they were
uncompressing, but I didn¹t know where they¹d gone. Once I did a ³find² I
found them under  Documents > Microsoft User Data > Saved Attachments. When
I have more time, I¹ll try to figure out how to have them to to my desktop
as a default.
Thanks again to all.

Jackie
