I used to be able to do them but I can't anymore for some reason. Don't really use the sound machine much anyway so it don't matter!

Send me your file. I will tell you what you are doing wrong.

More than likely you are not renaming the file as you have kiddie-mode turned on. Windows is hiding the real file extension to stop you messing with it. It's in Tools -> Folder Options -> View -> Hide extestions for known file types (on XP at least).

Sometimes when you save (and I think rename as well) a file to a certain file type e.g. "moyles.pak", you have to surround the file name in "quotes", otherwise it will rename it moyles.pak.zip and it will still be a zip file. Not sure if this helps.
