As James already mentionned the drive letters are not included in the
filespec. This is how the dll's work
However you could overcome your problem using the OnSetNewName event
this is called for every file to be added to the archive,
In the event handler you coudl change the filenames in something
like c_test.txt; d_text.txt and so on.
That way you get your drive spec in the filename and at the same
time make your filenames unique
