Hi all,
I need to compress a directory to a file type *.zip,
Performing the command from a Powercobol program.

Regards.

Massimo.

We use an active-X add-in - DynaZIP from Inner Media, Inc.

<www.innermedia.com>

Works swell.

A third party ActiveX, as suggested by HeyBub, is a good solution.

If you don't want to do that, why not call WinZip from the command line?
