This OCX is manufactured by Microhelp, Inc.: Marietta, GA (404)516-0899. You can contact them by this number and get catalogs, demos, etc. This OCX has specific set of properties/methods that allows to use it for compressing/decompressing data. Actually it works as Pkzip/Pkunzip.exe but can be incorporated inside VFP. Check VFP manual how to create OLE controls or you can always contact me.
