That makes sense.  It was late last night and I didn't feel like 
googling & looking around for help.  I'll try that when I get home 
today.  I am assuming that the "zip" command in linux makes files that 
are compatible with winzip or pkzip in windows.  This online course I am 
taking requires Windows, IE for the website, MS word for assignments 
submitted, and all files in "zip" format.  I have been using firefox, 
and OO.org for all assignments (saved in Word format).  Works great and 
the school has not complained about anything I've submitted.  Guess I 
don't need windoze after all.
