    You can use Info Zip library for creating compressed files.

    Go to www.vbaccelerator.com and search for zip/unzip. It shows you how to compress files using the standard dll's in VB.

    There is also a library called ZLib that's available for free off the internet.
    You can find here ZLibTool Demo. I've used it before. Depending on the compression rate it can compress smaller than ZIP. I don't remember specifically if it can compress/uncompress to/from the ZIP format.
