      Is   pkzip     in your current directory?     

      If not,  then it  must be in a directory that is in your path.
      For more info on      path        ,     check out:

      And be sure to reply to ghostdog's inquiry as to exactly what error messages you see.

      I think maybe he believes that Pkzip is a built-in command.
