That will allow you to create a file that will contain the arguments to the files and/or folders to be zipped.<BR /><BR />Without this option, it will not be possible for you to do that.<BR /><BR />Good luck<BR /><BR />PS: WinZip Command Line only works with WinZip Pro Wed, 06 Dec 2006 19:09:55 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/writing-a-batch-file/m-p/3908891#M7634 Jorge Pinto Leite 2006-12-06T19:09:55Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/writing-a-batch-file/m-p/3908892#M7635 Get the Info-Zip "zip" and "unzip" freeware utilites from <A href="http://www.info-zip.org/" target="_blank">http://www.info-zip.org/</A><BR /><BR />"Info-ZIP's purpose is to provide free, portable, high-quality versions of the 'Zip' and 'UnZip' compressor-archiver utilities that are compatible with the DOS-based PKZIP by PKWARE, Inc."
