>>I need a zip program to include with my software. I am use to using Winzip which was very easy to use for personal use, but never it used it in my programs. Has any body had experience Dynazip, or used any other zips in their programs? Is Dynazip easy to use? Was it reliable? I am using VFP 5.0a, and soon to be VFP 6 on Windows 98.

>I have found it reliable and easy to use. They actually have tech support people who know and support vfp. Also, the manual includes instructions specific to VFP. The only problem was the fact that the .OCXs use a lot of memory when they are created, even when they are not zipping. I just make sure to create them only when they are needed, and not leave them on a form.

As an afternote, I use the DLLs not the OCXs, so it's just a matter of declaring the DLL functions, but this does mean that I have to manufacture some 'C' like data structures, using strings in VFP.
