[AccessD] Unzip Files

I've played around with the vbAccelerator project:
http://www.vbaccelerator.com/home/VB/Utilities/VBPZip/article.asp 

It requires a few external libraries, which AFAIK are all freely
distributable.

Hello All,

The app I'm working on is personal...not for distribution...so I'm not
worried about using on a different machine.  The OS is XP Pro...and it
allows me to unzip/decompress .zip files...is there any way to call this
function from Access/vba/api or something?

Thanks,

Mark
