    Question ermmm???

    Do you mean to just run it or to extract to to a directory??? If you are talking about just running it and letting the user specify the directory (or use the defult) i imagine you can use
    Shell "c:\whateverdir\exename.exe", vbnormal focus

    Cease

    Yes the Shell will work for what you want to do. If you want to automatically unzip the file for them, you could use the SendKeys function to control what Winzip does.
