[AccessD] zip/unzip

OK, I got it working.  It was page faulting because I wasn't setting up
required properties before trying the zip, little things like the name of
the zip file, the name of the object to zip etc.  Once I set those
properties, it works fine.  The zipped file can be read by Winzip.  Cool
stuff and will be part of the next framework demo article I'm working on
tonight.

You my dear friend are OLD it would seem.  Are you by any chance referring
to core memory?  I actually worked on computers with core memory back in my
Navy days.  Massive Sperry Univac 642/B refrigerator sized "mainframes", 36
bit with 32 kwords of core memory and a lightening fast 4 microsecond
instruction time (256 k instructions / second).

I put them in System32 and the app page faults and closes Access if I try
and run the zip stuff/
