If you need to e-mail a database or have received a zipped database (a database
compressed with Winzip, which has a .zip extension), you can use AccuZIP6 to
zip or unzip the file. AccuZIP6 has a built in compression tool. Compressing
your files helps save space when storing files for future use. It also makes
e-mail transfers faster and more efficient. To compress a file in AccuZIP6 follow
the directions below:
- With the file open in AccuZIP6, pull down the File menu to Backup.
- AccuZIP6 will save the compressed file to the same location as the original
file by default. To change the location of the compressed file, click on the
disk button in the Backup window and choose a location.
- Click the Backup button.
To restore a file that has been zipped follow the directions below:
- In AccuZIP6, pull down the File menu to Restore.
- Click on the Folder button in the Restore window.
- Browse to the compressed file location and select the file.
- Click OK.
- Click Restore.
If the file is an AccuZIP6 database (or a DBF) AccuZIP6 will prompt you to
open the file. If the file is any other format, you can open it by pulling down
the File menu to Open List. |
