Hi,

The zip functionality that comes with WinXP/Win2k3 does not have
a command line interface.

Some free zip/unzip programs that can help you:

ZipGenius has a command line interface (freeware)
http://www.zipgenius.it/

PowerArchiver has a command line version as well:
http://www.powerarchiver.com

Last freeware version of PowerArchiver:

Can Scripting get fingers onto the zip functionality?
I used your url to grope around technet and looked through
the script center script repository in the storage/files
areas and others but didn't find anything. Maybe I just
didn't look in the right place, but searching for things
like zip script didn't turn up anything relevant. Havin
a script be able to zip a file would be very useful for me.

thanks

As you say 7-Zip is the go.
That Zip Genius someone suggested actually uses 7-Zip in the background.
Use the 7-Zip command line tool. Just type 7z on a command line and it will
reply with the syntax for all the options and switches.

Try it, you'll work it out!

Hallo!
Thank you all for the many tipps. I already tried ZipGenius as it was the
first one, but didnt succeed with the '-extract' Option in command mode.
And that is what i actually need. It just does nothing.
Well, will try one of the other utilities you mentioned here. One will do
for sure.
Thanks!
Helge

Powerarchiver does its job pretty well on the first try, even not needing
the command-line add-on.
Thanks!

CreateBlankZip.vbs FileName.zip
==========================
Set Ag=Wscript.Arguments
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set ts = fso_OpenTextFile(Ag(0), 8, vbtrue)
BlankZip = "PK" & Chr(5) & Chr(6)
For x = 0 to 17
BlankZip = BlankZip & Chr(0)
Next
ts.Write BlankZip

Unzip.vbs SrcFldr DestFldr
eg, unzip "C:\..\My Documents" "C:\MyZip.zip"
It doesn't matter if the source is a zip and dest is a folder EXCEPT it only works zipping if there is a msgbox as the last statement. Dunno why. Msgbox is not needed if unzipping. I think it's an object reference thing and zipping is slow. Both Folders/Zips must exist.
===================================
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set Ag=Wscript.Arguments
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Set DestFldr=objShell.NameSpace(Ag(1))
Set SrcFldr=objShell.NameSpace(Ag(0))
Set FldrItems=SrcFldr.Items
DestFldr.CopyHere FldrItems, &H214
Msgbox "Finished"
