RE: [Talk] Using BWS to execute WinZip

[Corinna]

I have used winzip 9.0 which has a commandline plug-in available at no extra cost - winzip cannot be the evaluation version to run in the script. Here is the code to call the routine to zip 1 file, you can also read through a directory and zip all the files or all of a particular type.   Const ZIP_EXE As String = """C:\Program Files\WinZip\wzzip""" Sub caller() WinZipSub "c:\SomeFile.bws", "c:\winziptest.zip", True End Sub ' Zip or unzip the files. ' The default location of the winzip32.exe is ' C:\Program Files\WinZip\. If your winzip32.exe ' is in another folder, change ZIP_EXE accordingly. Sub WinZipSub(ByVal source As String, ByVal target As String, ByVal zip_it As Boolean)       If zip_it = True Then         ' Zip appending the source file to the target.         Shell ZIP_EXE & " -a " & target & " " & source, vbHide     Else         ' Extract the target to the source directory.         Shell ZIP_EXE & " -e " & target & " " & source, vbHide     End If End Sub   Thanks, Corinna Robertson   Boston Software Systems [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.bostonworkstation.com The Essential Tool for Healthcare Integration 866-653-5105 ext. 5 508-653-5105   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mitchell Sherry - Mid West Div.
