This is oversimplified but try something like this:
cCommand = 'WzZip -a -p -r -Jhrs -wh OutFile g:\vfp\*.* >Results.txt'
Run &cCommand
Results.txt will contain all the processing output, just suck it in to VFP with FileToStr() and look for 'Sucessful' (all OK) or 'Warning' in front of a file that has a problem.

Most errors, including having a file open should not prevent the process from finishing. If the file is open, it will back it up, but won't guarentee the data is not in flux.
