Hi.

I have an app in VFP which does a call out to the Winzip Command Line to backup some files. Pseudo code as follows:

Sele Fil
Goto top
Do while not eof()
WZZIP a*.* MyUniqueName && This is WinZip Command Line
Copy MyUniqename to Network Drive

Sele Fil
SkiP
Enddo

The problem I have is that control is returned immediately to the Copy caommand, before the Winzip is finished.
Also, the way Winzip works, the MyUniqueName.zip is actually created on disk at the start of the zip, so I cant test on the existence of the file or not.

I have used a Loop which just waits 1o minutes, but some zips will only take 1 minute and others may take 12 mins.

Any ideas on this appreciated.

regards,
Gerard
