I tried it several times...it does not run...just says "error" each
time. Could be a corrupted Zip file but I doubt it because the Zip
file unpacked OK. It is probably not worth spending much time on...
either these animation files run or they don't...some are just a pain
and not worth the trouble of fixing them !

Bye,
