>Rick,
>I've been using XCeed, which works well for most things. It's biggest drawback is that it can't move files into a ZIP file - if you don't want to keep the 'original' you need to deleted them manually. This can be a problem with VFP if you have multiple folders. I'll probably need to go to WSH to handle the delete problems.

You might want to investigate SHFileOperation() as an alternative; it lets you build an explicit list of things to delete into a double-null terminated list, which can then be operated against in a single API call. I have code posted in the API section dealing with copying - deletion uses the same double-null terminated list of file specs, but a different function code.
