I had excellent success using DynaZIP, a 3rd-party utility that works well with VFP. It packs/extracts archives, including standard zip format. Drop the ActiveX control on a form and go to town. It can display progress thermometers, etc. w/o having to program them yourself. I'm sure Hallogram carries it. In case you don't feel like reinventing the wheel, check it out.

>>I'm currently constructing a program in VFP 6.0 which, by looking at the last three characters of the filename, extracts files from cd's to a specified directory. But, preferred over the .exe files, I'd rather unpack them with the DLL variants. I have read the documentation but have had no luck so far in transforming the C structure given into a FoxPro accessible structure.
