HI, I am using CGZipLibrary.dll in my code for zipping the files. A .zip file is being created but the file is not getting compressed. The original file and the .zip file are of same size.
Please provide some suggestions. Thanks in advance.

CGZipLibrary.dll… that’s a rather old library if my memory is serving me right, I remember using it (or some other library with a similary name) in some old VB6 projects, and I had to update it because it had some problems when compressing folder structures. I may have the updated library lying somewhere around.
For .Net there are better alternatives like SharpZipLib and DotNetZip. I see the question is tagged with VB6 as well… if you need to use the library from VB6, from what I know, DotNetZip is marked as visible for COM, so you should be able to use it as well, although haven’t tried it myself.
