ObjectZip Problem

Published on March 10, 2006 By WebGizmos In Personal Computing

OK...the problem is that when I click on an item to create a zip file...it creates the zip file...but it also dumps all the content of the item into the folder as well instead of containing it to the zip file. Is there any way to fix this?

this confuses me, as to what you mean

I went into a folder with some pngs...right clicked and created a new ODZip...it created it then asked me which of the pngs I wanted to add to the zip...I picked one...then dragged the others in. So then in my png folder I had my png and an odzip with my pngs.

I then moved my pngs into a folder...clicked on the folder and made an odzip, then my folder contained my pngs and an odzip containing my folder with pngs inside

Seems it was just doing it with .CURXPTheme files Bichur...everything else was working fine. I was trying to zip up some of the .CURXPTheme files so I could add them to my storage discs but it wasn't working.

huh. I had a .curxptheme saved in my downloads. I right clicked on it and chose odzip > new odzip. It then asked me the name of the new zip and save as what type - archives was already showing, so I left it there. Once I put in a name and clicked save, it listed every thing in the folder I was in so I could pick what to put in it. I picked the .curxptheme I had saved and it put it in the .zip. I explored the .zip and the only thing in there is one .curxptheme.
