By default VADV is setup to use PKZip v2.04g. If you need that version you can
download it off my BBS in the archive directory. Pkzip and pkunzip both need to
be located in your path.

You can use another zip utility (like zip/unzip or a later version of
pkzip/pkunzip) by editing the arcs.cfg (or using VADV32 to edit it). I
generally recommend that you use 2.04g if possible though.

What version are you using and is it in your path?

Steve
