9.7 ZIP
ZIP allows you to save memory and increase the storage capacity of your Pocket PC Phone
by compressing les in the conventional "zip" format. You can view and extract archive les
received via web download, E-mail attachment, other mobile devices, or PCs. Or, create
new zip les on your Pocket PC Phone.
Starting ZIP and opening a .zip le
Each time ZIP is started, it will search for all les on the Pocket PC Phone that have the .zip
extension, and it displays these les in the Archive List screen. To start ZIP:
1. Select Start > Programs > ZIP. The .zip les currently on your Pocket PC Phone will be
listed in the Archive List screen.
2. To open a le, you can do any of the following:
• Tap the le and select Open Archive from the File menu.
• Tap-and-hold on the le and select Open Archive from the pop-up menu.
• Double-tap on the desired le.
Customizing the view
You can manipulate how the les or parent archive les are displayed by selecting either
Large Icons, Small Icons, List, or Details from the View menu. The tabs in the Tools
Menu > Options screen also allow you to set various ZIP behaviors to your own prefer-
ences. Each tab also contains a Reset button which resets all settings in the current tab
to the original default settings.
Archive List screen
When a search for archive .zip les has completed, they will be listed in the Archive List
screen in the order that they were found. In this screen, there are two menus available,
the File Menu and the View Menu. The Toolbar is not displayed in the Archive List screen
because the following icons are incorporated into the Command Bar at the bottom of the
screen: Open Archive, New Archive, Delete Archive, Archive Properties, and Options.
To open the pop-up menu in the Archive List screen, tap-and-hold on any lename in the list.
The selected le will be the target of any operations performed from the menu. (Multiple
selection of .zip les is not allowed). After an archive le has been opened, ZIP will list the
les in the Individual File screen.
The New Archive... command lets you create a new empty le with a lename extension
