This is a simple program to ease zipping and unzipping files. It needs the VBRun100.dll and PKZ110.exe.
This program is able to back through directories making file searches a mouse click away. It is design for quick, simple use. if it is necessary to use switches, passwords or comments, then other programs will suit you better, or working from the prompt.
Operations
General:
1. Put PKZip and PKUnZip in your root directory.
2. All files operated upon will be placed in the same directory as the Zip Master EXE.
3. To redirect subsequent files use the File Manager.
UnZip:
Simply double-click your way to the file for the action, double-click it so that it is included in the "Path:" statement, then click the "UnZip" button.

Again, double-click your way to the file for the action, double-click it so that it is included in the "Path:" statement, then click the "Zip" button.
-Multiple files-

Acknowledgements and Comments:
The Compu-Serve gurus made this simple program possible. I was saddened by MicroSoft (again) when I discovered that Visual basic was really a Windows SDK add-on. Serious programming has been happered because the API documentation was not included.
If I can help anyone that has a mobility impairment with any specialty programming from Windows Visual Basic feel free to contact me.
I hope you find this program useful, and feel free to distribute it.
