Accessing Files in a .ZIP File

 Accessing Files in a .ZIP File

I'm writing a program that uses a lot of small .wav files and don't want
to take up a lot of valuable hard drive space.  Is there any way that I
can use VB4/32 to access the sound files through a .zip file without
unzipping it?  I'd also like to know of any good books or web sites
regarding file compression techniques if you know of any.

Many thanks,
Greg Macon

Look for a file on the internet called "complzh.zip".  It is a dll for
use with Visual Basic (16 bit only) and it's shareware (15.00 for
registration)
