Run Pkpak in vb

[dfishfan]

Help needed, need to run pkpak from VB to zip 4 files to send to another system. Used shell function will pop up window but does not run zip function.

This is what i have tried. I created a .bat file which runs the routine if clicked on but does not run if through the code.

Shell "g:/download/dl.bat"

Any help much appreciated.

If you are on XP or newer you should be using .cmd files instead of .bat files. Try saving it as a .cmd file instead and see if that helps.
