Mark, Hi.
I've been using Dynazip and your class for a while now, in house on a Test basis and everything fine up to this week.


It seems to be dropping files from the zip now , seems to be related to dates or when updated, but I am not sure.

For instance I have a folder with about 300 files in it , I recently updated a few SCX 's and all files except these SCX's and SCT were zipped.
(If I zip directly with Winzip, they all ZIP)

(In another case, it seemd to backup all files , except 2002, but if I go to another machine, all the files are zipped up fine.

Any idea of what might be causing this ?


Regards,

Gerard
