I've used Perl and the Archive::Zip module to grab a text file form a zip file and use it to populate a database. I write mine to a temp file but there might be a way to do grab it into a variable and process it straght up instead of wiritng to a file but If it's very big youmay not want to do that. I'd check our search.cpan.org for Archive::Zip and do it in Perl!
