I have been using STORE;COMPRESS, to a DISC file. COMPRESS is only an
option if you have TurboSTORE. If you have TurboSTORE on both, this
works great, with really good compression. As I understand it, the
Express 3 update to 55 lets you ftp files with a negative filecode. That
doesn't let you do it now, but may give you one more reason for someone
to approve the upgrade to 55.
