Thx Jon. The time I've wasted at work installing Winzip everywhere! Ok, only
about 2 minutes on each of half a dozen machines but anyway. I feel a right
eejit.

Yes, I think it does, as I don't have the options here either, and I've got
WinZip installed.

This is XP right? Mine doesn't show that option. Might that be because I've
already installed Winzip? Does that remove the in-built option?

Rigth click in a folder in Explorer and select New - then look right at the
bottom of the sub- menu. Select Compressed (zipped) Folder. It just creates
a Zip file.

Then you can manage it like an ordinary folder including dragging and
dropping into and out of it.
