Hi Cathy,
if you want to send a Zip file containing files (and even subdirectories) 
that will unzip to a certain folder, take a look at WinZip's option to make 
an executable file. It will create an .exe file that unzips automatically, 
and you can specify the folder it will unzip to. Very easy to use.
