Claudio,

You can use Free ZipMaster OCX.
You find an VFP samples from the URL in this message signature.

Also, can you provide a sample code which shows that VFP low-level file reading functions does not work with read-only files ? I havent encountered this problem.

After I've finally figured out some other routines that I've needed for something here, I just realized that I can't use ZipRead if the file is marked as ReadOnly (and in my situation I just can't change that status), since the routine makes use of low-level functions.
