gzip compatibility with WinZip/PKZIP

I have 4 files in a dir ,
A_to_Z.txt
Z_to_A.txt
1_to_20.txt
20_to_1.txt
I want to create a single gzip file which will contain these 4 text files. This gzip file should be compatible with Windows PKZIP/WinZip. I know you will suggest 'tar' command. But PKZIP/WinZip dont recognize zipped tar files seems. Please help me in this.

Thanks,
kanu_kanu
