 Help: Howto UnCompress gzip'ed files within VB3

Is it possible to uncompress gzip'ed (1.2.4) file in VB3 without using
DLL's?
If so:
        Does anyone have a function or something (Shareware) for dealing with a
gzipp'ed (1.2.4) file.
        I prefer the sourcecode for how to do this in VB3 without dll's if
possible.
Else: =)
        If i need dll's are there something that is as free as gzip?
        Or something that are cheap but good. =)
Thanks.

Jim-
        Good luck doing file compression/decompression
with VB3. For cheap or free I would guess that about all
you will find is the DOS port of GNU Zip. I've seen it on
one of the Linux distributions. You could shell it to
decompress your files.

I got some code, using dlls for you: it works.
Done some nice zip-wizards with this.

Send an email, if interested.
