Adding comments to Zip files

[Stoker]

I have created a VBA routine that creates some files (based on user input) and moves them into a zip archive. I would like to fill in the zip file comments field when the zip file is created, but can't get the syntax right. Does anyone know the correct syntax for adding comments to zip files?

Depends on how you create your zip file, do you use a special code from a to z or use a dll file or third party file like 7zip...

I am using WinZip command line instructions, which are called through the shell function in my VBA routine

ReturnValue = Shell("C:\Program Files\WinZip\WZZIP.exe -m MyZipFile.zip MyFile.txt", vbHide)

In this website

http://www.winzip.com/downcl.htm

you can download winzip command line support. It is
an exe file. After download open with your winzip file
(not necessary the last version 9.0). Important open and
don't double click. When opened you can find the file
WZCLINE.HLP that contains all the attribute for
use in the command line.
