Automating XP Compression

F

Is it possible to export text files and then "Send to Compressed Folder"
using VBA? I also need the code to "De-Compress" the files in the future for
re-linking to the DB for reporting reasons.

Thanx in advance,
Steve.

If you're talking about the built-in compression of Windows NT/2000/XP, the
compression should be automatic and invisible to you. Simply mark the
folder as compressed in the properties dialogue box, and the rest will be
done for you; no need to manually/programmatically compress or decompress.
