Compressing in Compress.exe format through code
I am writing a program that creates a setup on the users computer
based on their current files for our companies program. (Basically a
backup program that when it is restored on another computer it is an
installation program). My problem is with compress.exe. I have to
shell to that program to compress the bootstrap files in a format
compatible with API calls and the SETUP.EXE bootstrapper. Anyone know
of a pure windows way to accomplish this compression in a compatible
format. I hate to shell to DOS, it is causing lots of problems. What
about a control, or API calls?
Thanks
