Hi, I am developing a script to download a zip file from ftp site and unzip the file. The download part works fine, but the unzip part does not. Because there are files with long file names in the zip file, I am using wshShell.run("pkunzip ....",0,true) to unzip the file, all I got is 8.3 style file name. Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Get the PKzip 2.5 from PK Ware (www.pkware.com) or another long filename aware archive program.

Have a look at www.winzip.com for a windows version (free evaluation). There is also a command line version there.
