I have a simple routine as follows
**where mbaks is drive letter plus filename
CLOSE DATA
** others on the network are ok
Do Case
Case File('AZIP32.DLL')
WAIT WINDOW NOWAIT 'Creating backup FILE ('+mbaks+') using Azip32'
oldfile=mbaks+".ZIP"
IF FILE("&oldfile")
DELETE FILE &oldfile
endif
tt=azip(.T.,"&mbaks","*.dbf *.fpt *.cdx *.fr? -foxuser.*")
IF FILE("&oldfile")
=MESSAGEBOX('Backup file ('+mbaks+') has been created',0,'')
endif
Case File('WINZIP32.exe') && in case they didn't
install it under program files
Run /N winzip32 -a -r -p &mbaks *.Dbf *.fpt *.Cdx *.fr*
Case File("c:\program files\winzip\winzip32.exe")
Run /N c:\Program Files\winzip\winzip32.Exe -a -r -p
&mbaks *.Dbf *.fpt *.Cdx *.fr*
ENDCASE
do tropen && re-open the tables
I hope this helps
With Azip, I have a vague memory that it is important to delete the
old file before creating a new file, especially with open files
