From: John Martens on 22 Dec 2009 01:51 Alwin, I was hoping for a DLL wrapper for it but using the EXE will probably do as well.

From: John Martens on 22 Dec 2009 12:20 Jamal, Thanks for the link. Do you use it as well and did you make a wrapper for it ?

John, I did not use it. However, I just tested now and it works fine in VO. 1. Regsvr32 xgzip.dll (a MUST as admin). 2. Create a wrapper in VO using the Tools menu, Automation Server, click the Type Lib, then select the xgzip.dll. Here is a sample: METHOD PushButton1( ) CLASS gzipwin LOCAL o AS igzip LOCAL uRetVal AS USUAL o := IGZip{} IF o:fInit o:Compress("c:\myfile.dbf", "c:\myfile.gzip") o := NULL_OBJECT InfoBox{,"", "Zipped "}:show() ELSE InfoBox{,"", "NOT Zipped"}:show() ENDIF RETURN NIL Use can also use late bound: local o as OleAutoObject o := OleAutoObject{"XStandard.GZip.1"} etc. Jamal "John Martens" <adsl672100(a)tiscali.nl> wrote in message news:4b30ffd9$0$28144$5fc3050(a)news.tiscali.nl... > Jamal, > > Thanks for the link.
