From the WinZip 8 Help File. I have not tried it yet but you should be able use yhe Shell API.
"Note: at the time of this writing, the command line support add-on has still not been officially released, but a pre-release beta test version is available as a free download from the web page The WinZip Command Line Support Add-On lets you use WinZip's® power within batch files, macros, and other situations where you have a specific task and would prefer to accomplish it quickly or automatically, without using the usual WinZip graphical user interface.
