Problem with zip command..
Hi friends

I am working in cygwin. Currently I am in root directory(C). I want to zip only the files from a diretory "A" to a new directory 1.zip in root directory C.
I am using the following command:
$: zip 1.zip A/*
but it is zipping the entire directory itself, But what I want is when I unzip 1.zip I should get
file1
file2 etc...
instead of
A/file1
A/file2 etc..
I really appreciate your help if you can help me in modify the above command so that I can get one of my script done on 100's of directories like A.

Thanks in advance..
