No batch file involved - and now that I check I'm not sure WHAT xlaxdiff uses 
to unpack things - I thought there was a .ctl file associated, but all I can 
find is the one for xlaxnode which naturally enough has nothing to do with 
archives.  If it doesn't work with the archived file this time, I probably will 
set up a batch file to unpack things first, and I'm pretty sure I've got 
pkunpack around here somewhere.  If I don't, I'll go find one or accept your 
kind offer.  Thanks!
