maxXPsoft Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 (edited) Since I'm constantly messing with files in Sp's this comes in handyExpands or Makecab in current directory.

prathapml Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Expands or Makecab in current directory.Looks like a nice tweak to have. I shall store it for future use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxXPsoft Posted August 10, 2004 Author Share Posted August 10, 2004 The MAKECAB works fine, but the expand doesn't appear to do anything.Am I doing something wrong?Probably not, working in the source dir of SP2 and even previous it seem's it only work's on some files. That I cannot explain. Like try 1394.IN_ in I 386 it work's.I fixed above reg and it work's on most files Now by adding %1 %1It don't work on .PI_, go to prompt and give it destination name.
