Backup and Zip DB without using WinZip

[mjseim]

Greetings,

I've seen the gHudson thread that explains how to backup and zip a database. However, that code must use WinZip to work.

I was wondering if anyone knew how to perform the same task (backup and zip) with the "compressed folders" function built into windows.

This would be a great help for me as my company does not utilize WinZip... they actually prohibit it.
