youneverknow Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 (edited) (Moderators please feel free to move this post) Some folks seem to grasp the "show me" approach to learning.

stevevan Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Good find! I glanced through the Frontpage one and it may help several people here. (One can always learn something new!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayson Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I downloaded all the ones that were of great interest..might come in handy when the free D/L expires for someone that wants it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajunman4life Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I went ahead and downloaded them all and put them in a zip archive. Disk space is cheap, never know when I or someone else might need these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LF from MC Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I went ahead and downloaded them all and put them in a zip archive. Hi cajunman, Would this be an Off Topic if I asked how you went about down loading to a zip archive?? I've never downloaded anything to a zip file before. Thank you, Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayson Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 You download them then with a zip program, you create a archive of all the files you wanty to zip... winzip winarc are the two I use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajunman4life Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Personally I use 7-zip. Completely free, with no "nagware" (in other words, it won't continually remind you to "buy the full version" like WinZip does). I should mention it appears PDF's are fairly compressed as it is, because all the files total were just over 100MB, but the archive is ~95MB on "Maximum" compression level.

mkdesigner Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Hi, This is great!! Thanks for the link. I've downloaded the ones my boss is always asking me about and will burn them to a CD. Great guy, my boss, but I'm constantly being interrupted with very basic questions. He doesn't use several of the programs often enough.

Thanks cajunman, Then I don't even have to bother zipping them. And thank you for the information about 7-zip, I'll have to look into that. BTW, thanks for the links youneverknow. And thanks also jayson, I have the paid version of winzip, but lost the information to get it back when my computer crashed, but I do have a hard copy, I just have to look for it.
