Anybody knows how to unzip files in VB? Can I do it with FileCopy or I need to use Shell?
Thanks

If you have WinZip or PKZip then these programs can be called from Shell command with parameters to unpack things.

Search, in this forum, for WinZip or PKZIp and results there will tell you how to do it.

Take a look at http://www.codeguru.com/vb/articles/1854.shtml - that wraps the unzip / zip operations in a nice simple class module.
