ZIP Files

System

I'm trying find a way of integrating ZIP files with WorkSite. I can do this successfully with a product such as Winzip on the Workstation, but with XP there is no need to have a specific application. I can launch the ZIP file using explorer to open it, but WorkSite tracks the explorer.exe task, and immediatly checks the zip record back in - this means that if a user adds files to the ZIP, the changes are not saved back to the database.

Has anybody come across any way around this (preferably without code).

Cheers?

I spent some time on this and worked with Tech Support earlier in the XP life and was unable to get it to work well because of what you saw. Getting WinZip/PKZip to work is very simple and pretty fool proof.
