I zip up my data directory every night with the following:

tcFullPathToZipFile = 'K:\VFAPPS\CODE40\UPDATES\MICRAPOINT\DATA.ZIP'
tcFullpathToItemList = 'K:\VFAPPS\MICRAPOINT\DATA\*.*'
tlDontStorePathInZip = .T.
tcThermometerTitle = 'ZIPPING THE LOTCARD DATA DIRECTORY'

* Turn off blender action
.ActionDZ = ZIP_NOACTION

* Set the name of the Zip file
.ZipFile = ALLTRIM(tcFullPathToZipFile)

* Set the items we are zipping
.ItemList = tcFullpathToItemList

* Tell the zip control not to store the path
* of the items in the zip file
.NoDirectoryNamesFlag = tlDontStorePathInZip

* Set the thermometer title
.ExtProgTitle = ALLTRIM(tcThermometerTitle)

* Lets use the thermometer included with the DynaZip-AX
.ZipSubOptions = ZSO_EXTERNALPROG+ZSO_EXTPROGCANCEL

* Tell the zip control to add
.ActionDZ = ZIP_ADD

* Check for success of the zip
llSuccess = (.ErrorCode = ZE_OK)
IF llSuccess
llZipReturn = .T.
ELSE
llZipReturn = .F.
ENDIF


The above will only get a zip file with no path of just what is in the data directory. If there are directories under the data then I would include the flag:

* We want to recurse
.RecurseFlag = tlRecurseSubDirectories

If I did not want full path stored I would use the following:

* Tell the zip control not to store the path
* of the items in the zip file
.NoDirectoryNamesFlag = tlDontStorePathInZip
