When you compress a file or files by zipping, the product is one .zip file... not a .zip folder AFAIK

So, when you go tools...options...sharing, just locate the folder that contains the zipped file and you should be fine.

You can check in the LW library to see if people are attempting to download it (or you can look for it in the 'Monitor' tab).

Hope this helps

Dan

You won't see the files you're sharing by searching on your own computer

You won't see individual files...that window will only show folders.

You sure do name your folders strangely

Just kidding. Yes, all you have to do is locate your folder and click 'select'. I think you have to click 'apply' after that, as well.

Just to be clear, you're not actually 'uploading' your files. You're simply making them available for others to search for and download. Sorry if you already knew this.
