| I was creating a script to zip a file using WinZip on my local PC, the DBA told me late Friday the server I will be using does not have WINZip (go figure). I understand Windows has Compression software that allows you to zip a file. I searched this site and found no samples. I Googled it and found the following example.COMPACT P:\data\TestFile.txt /CBut this does not zip the file it just changes the size of the file on disk. Is there a command that will zip my file, and will it put a *.zip extension on it?Any suggestions?Thank you,Trudye |
