 HELP: A DLL that can compress like COMPRESS.EXE

Hello!
I'm a VB programmer and I'm looking for a DLL (freeware, shareware,
commercial) that can compress files using the same format as
Microsoft's compress.exe.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks very much!

There are LZ Compression routines in the Win32 API that will compress to
this format. Search the MSDN sampler that comes with VB for more
information.

I know there are API functions to decompress files, but I don't know of any
to compress files.
