Google Apps Help!

[sandler777]

Hello,
I installed CM7 and have been trying to get google apps installed using both rom manager and cwm recovery. However, it won't install through ROM manager and just takes me to the recovery screen and with the file I have on my SDcard i get that no .tar archives found message.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

answered my own question by renaming file to update.zip

Anything you flash must be a .Zip file. also remember that the files can also be download from the Cyanogenmod forums.
