Guys Im using winzip 11 evaluation version.

We have been sent a zip file with accompanying .Z02 files. Both the accompanying files have the .Z02 extension.

The .zip file contains a word document that we cannot access. When I double click the word document via winzip, I am prompted with a dialog box with the instructions -

"Specify location of part 1 of the archive"

I point it to the folder where the files are on my C drive and the prompt returns, still asking for part 1 of the archive.

Can anyone help please?

TIA :)
 
I would imagine that it follows the same rules as other archives with parts, its looking for a file with a .z01 extension symbolising the first part of the series.

So if both files have a .z02 extension they are either misnamed or your missing the first part of two archives. Someone can correct me if im wrong but that looks like the problem there.

I'd go with that explanation. Have a quick go with 7zip but i suspect something's misnamed or misplaced.
 
Hi guys,

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.

I tried renaming the extensions but this had no effect. I still got the recurring dialog box asking for part 1 of the archive.

:(
 
try with 7zip

put all the files (don't rename them) into one dir, then extract from the first file
