I copied this from Winzip-------------
WinZip makes it easy to create Zip files that "span" multiple disks.  This
is useful if the files you are working with will not fit on one disk.
To make a Zip file that spans multiple disks, simply create a Zip file on a
removable disk, then add files to the Zip as you normally would.  If the
disk fills during Add operation, you will be prompted for another disk.
Simply insert the next disk and click the OK button.
Important: disk spanning is not available when adding files to an existing
archive; it is only available while creating a new archive.  Also note that
you cannot add or remove files from a Zip file that spans disks.  WinZip
requires pre-formatted disks (you can format disks using the Windows
Explorer or File Manager)
Example:
To zip the files in your c:\data folder to a Zip file called A:\DATA.ZIP:
1) Start WinZip
2) Drag and drop the c:\data folder from the Explorer or File Manager to the
WinZip window
3) In the Drop dialog box, type the filename of the Zip file (A:\DATA.ZIP)
4) Click the Add button
If more than one disk is needed, you will be prompted for additional disks.
