look for a proggie called "HJ Split". It's very reliable, easy to use and should do the job.
Win Ace is another VERY good compression program that lets you compress AND split into ANY filesize you want.

With Winrar, you can make .rar files wich are 15mb ( example, you can choose your size) So you can zip a 200 mb file in 20 .rar from 10 mb.
So you can put them on the zip.

Mayb it helps you a bit

you can also do this in winzip
what you do is you try to save it on to your zip and then there is an option called "multiple disk spaning"...

hope i helped...

A little program called Chainsaw will do the job nicely: you can select/specify the size chunks you want, and then put it back together again on the other computer. The good thing about it is, you dont need the program on the other computer to put it back together again. It creates a .bat file which Windows uses to piece the bits together. I have attached it for you!
