[AccessD] A2K - Unzip and append from CD

Hi Reuben

Can't you create a small VB, VBScript or Access app that does this?

Mr. Colby has some zip routines I believe, or study here:

or have a control (not free) to do the dirty work:

or simply run a command line tool like unzip.exe:

I need to append data to a table in Access.

However, the data is in a zipped txt file on a CD.

Anyone, have a way to allow the user to browse to the proper file, unzip it,
and insert the data into Access in one motion?

Thanks.
