7zip compression

[remya1000]

VB.NET 2003 or 2005 application program.

i was trying to create an application program to compress some files using 7zip. when application program runs, need to browse and select the files need to be compressed and mention the name of the zip file and compress the file in that folder.

i google for some help. i'm getting examples only in C#.

Anyone know whether i can do this in VB.NET? if so, can you please help me and if possible can you please give an example?

Thanks in advance.

By the sounds of it, (from reading the link you posted) there should be documentation included...

Did you find any?

7z command line format is:
7z <command> <archive-name> <filenames>
In your vb application execute the command line:

c:\Program Files\7-zip\7z a archivename.7z theFileNameThat ToBeZipped


Where:
1) c:\Program Files\7-zip\ specify where 7z.exe is located
2) a is the 7z command to add to the archive
