Thank you for your response.

Being a Windows user, I don't use command line Mame at all. instead I use a front end - of which I have three different ones.

The oldest frontend I have is for version .149, the newest .160.

It's strange. I am using the .160 interface right now. I have everything checked in the UI (enable cheats). I have the path set. The file is in place, but no cheats show up.

Now, I have an old set of cheats, from .149 era - and they are unzipped into a folder. If I point the UI at that - all cheats show up.

I want to be up-to-date, and if need be I would unzip this new file into a folder. But whenever I try to unzip the XML files from this new ZIP it expands the first file, and then crashes out saying there's an error (this is with Winzip 19.0.) In other words, I can browse the .7z file, but not unzip it all.

I suppose Cheats haven't changed very much... it is very strange though.
