Hi Folks. Thanks for your replies
After some searching, I have decided on 7-Zip
For a few reasons:
- It seems to work
- It can be unzipped with Winzip
- I could integrate it easily into my exisiting
VFP routines with just a few changes
- It is free
- You can specify files (and Folders) to be excluded

Regards,
Gerard
