Huh? XP has built in zip compression utilities. Right click --> Send to --> Compressed (zipped) Folder.
I did not know that! And I don't know if I have XP at home.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I've been using the latest Firefox 3 beta quite a lot on my Mac. It's really good, I think. Although the lack of extensions is annoying.

What's an easy way to produce better looking and higher resolution trend graphs than Excel?
I would not mind an answer to that question myself. About twelve years ago, I would have answered Harvard Graphics. Don't know what the answer is today. Also years ago VFP put out a charting program that had all sort of presentation options that other charting programs did not have - basically substituting meaningful symbols for bars and data points. For example you could do bar charts with coins, dollar bills, people, food items... As a database addin it was not a commercial success, and then MS took it over, though the charting program was already so dead I don't think that made any difference.
Anyway I would love even an answer to Toms question. But if anyone knows of a program that could do the other stuff too, I have a lot of use for being able to do bar charts that use dollar bills instead of just bars.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Heh. I almost said "Harvard Graphics" when Tom asked.

Well there are recent versions of Harvard Graphics. I'm just not familiar with them. My intent was to say "12 years ago I would have known the answer, and it would have been .." not "12 years ago that was the right answer, and today it is not". For all I know the latest version of Harvard Graphics may rock.
