VBA to dump zip file contents to a file
Dear Mr. Mehl,
Well it's an old Kludge yet it may get you there, I used it to manage
hardrive filing system w/ access. Shell32 and wait a pkzip -v piped to a
text file. Then you will need some code to read in and process your text
file.
del "arch.txt"
iRV = Shell("pkunzip -v arch.zip > arch.txt", 1)
' there is a way to shell & wait, but I'd have to charge ya for it.
do
wait (2)
until fileexists("arch.txt")
' read in the file and populate tables
open #4 arch.txt for input
blah blah blah
close #4
HTH,
Byron
