The aim is to compress an .mdb file into a .zip file as a backup, the user can create regular backups, each backup file is kept on the pc, i need to compress to save space, i also zip .mdbs and then transfer to a remote server so i need to compress them.
My routines were (are) working fine on Vista and have achieved the goal, i just need to find a work round with the shell dll.
