>>>We like to unzip a file from within our VFP 6.0 program. So we call pkunzip to do the job (!PKUNZIP ...) On most machines this works fine but on one machine we get the message 'Cannot find command.com'. However we can start a dos-prompt and even pkunzip manually. The machine has a correct path and comspec. There is no FoxRun.pif because there is no VFP6.0 installed but if I create one it won't work. Even make copies from the command.com to all common directories won't help.

>>I can't help you on your problem. but there is a third party product called DynaZip wich can be incorporated into your application. It's pretty good and the functions can used through an OCX control or if you prefer by declaring the DLLs. Better still for you, it doesn't require a DOS shell.

Sorry Mace for your time. I find out that DynaZip works correct when I set the Application.AutoYield property. Now there is for me no need to examine XCeedZip.
