Extracting an individual Service Pack File =-> How?

[Marvin Miller]

Hi Folks;

I downloaded and extracted XP's SP2 but am wondering how do you extract a
single file?

I'm after one file and need to extract it. At present all the files show up
with a suffix of test.dl_
so I'm assuming they are still compressed.

Thanks!

Use the "Expand" command, from a Command Prompt window.
Type Expand/? to obtain the syntax and qualifiers for use.

Open a command prompt window (Start -> Run -> cmd.exe).
Navigate to the location you have the extracted SP2 files
stored and run the following command:
Expand test.dl_ C:\test.dll

This saves the expanded file to the root of your C drive. If
you want it saved in a different location, change the second
part of the command.

Good luck
