Hello,

I'm using Visual Foxpro 6.0 and have the following problem:

I've made an Excelfile from a table and want to copy it to a diskette.
So far I know what to do but the problem is that the Excel file is 1.8 MB big. That doesn't fit on a 1.44 MB diskette.
So I want to compress it in a 'universal'-format (like pkzip) so it will fit on a diskette. Actually I prefer to have a self-extracting executable of the Excelfile.

How can I elegantly 'zip' my Excelfile, and make a self-extracting file, in VFP 6.0 while I don't bother the user with ugly screens or interruption?

Thanks for your time...
