Need ZIP source code or freeware ZIP DLL

Robert Dengl #1 / 5	Need ZIP source code or freeware ZIP DLL I need to ZIP a file synchronously from within VB. I cannot shell to DOS pkzip because I have no way to halt program execution while pkzip is running (GetModuleUsage() doesn't work, probably because I am running WIN-OS/2 & OS/2 spawns the DOS box, not WIN-OS/2 so I always get 0 return code on GetModuleUsage() for DOS programs). GetModuleUsage() works fine on windows programs, so I need a windows ZIP program that accepts command-line parameters or a DLL that can do the zipping. Every program/DLL I've found up to this point is crippleware, so I'm ready to do the zipping myself in VB code if someone knows where I can get the source. Either that or a simple DLL to zip just one file. That can't be so difficult as to demand $$$ for. Bob

George R. Torral #2 / 5	Need ZIP source code or freeware ZIP DLL Twice I've tried to sit down and look at the source code of Info-Zip (a pkzip compatible zipper. zipper?) and twice I've put it off. It's a tall order. Of course, that's from where I'm standing. George Quote: >I need to ZIP a file synchronously from within VB.

There is a freeware ZIP decompression component for Delphi. You could either compile it into a DLL, or translate it to VB. _ Pennsylvania: Constructionwealth of Pennsylvania +------------------------------------------------------------+ \|Physically in Church Hill, TN - Logically Not Sure \| +------------------------------------------------------------+ Quote: >>SQUID - The ultimate database reader, and NO limits. #$737961 **Special Compile: 1.033B (Beta)
