Compression OCX....

[dodgyone]

Does anybody know where I can get a freeware compression tool (like WinZip, PKZip etc) for the application I'm creating? What's best out there as I couldn't find a great deal other than shareware stuff...

I just want to compress two files into a zipped up file...

Thank...

You could try gzip from

http://www.gzip.org

which is Freeware, however this only compresses specific files. The command
lines are

gzip -9 FileName (Max compression - creates .gz file)
gzip -d FileName.gz (uncompress)

Check the related links on this Web Site. They have a link
for Info-Zip that seems to include a Windows DLL that can
be incorporated with VB (or so they say) - never used this
product but you could give it a try.
