Manipulating WinZip With VB6

[robbie]

I'm writing a automated application that appends data into tables, opens workbooks in Excel and automatically refreshes them.

Now, I've been manually zipping these workbooks and I would like to automatically zip these workbooks into a newly created zip file (I use the date as the file name).

Has anybody been able to manipulate WinZip with VB6 and if so, does anybody know where there are some examples out on the net?

Thank you in advance for any and all help...

How To Zip And Unzip In VB

Thanks but the link and the download link for the dll's are corrupted. I will continue to browse online to get a working dll.

Once I place them in my system32 folder, they need to be registered using the command prompt and regsrve32. Correct?

They are????? I downloaded them quite a while ago, and had no problems. I wonder if something has happened between now and then. What specifically were you having a problem with?

Correct.

Here's the vbAccelerator example:

I tried to register the dll's on my pc and that is where I got the corrupted error message. I've studied the source code that comes with the code guru's example, I even used his dll as a reference and I am still unable to create a new zip file and add files to it which is what I am trying to accomplish.

I'll keep trying and I will take a look into vbaccelerator as well.
