I am trying to "Zip" some of the tune up files from the NHRA Drag Racing
sim, and when I do I get a message that say's "not a valid archive
file". Has anyone ran into this problem before???? If anyone can help
with this problem I would appreciate it greatly. I am using the WinZip
program to try and zip them,BTW.
Thanks in advance,
Troy
BTW,I want to zip them so I can post them on my website for other people
to have them.

Seems like you are doing it the wrong way. (RTFM). That error message
appears if you try to open a zip file that is corrupted, or if you try to
open a file that is not an archive(zip) file.

1. Start Winzip
2. Create a new archive.
3. Add your files to the archive

That's all there is to it.
