DV,

OpenVMS does not have a native UNZIP command.

There are ZIP and UNZIP donload links on the OpenVMS Open Source Tools page:

DV,

Welcome to the ITRC OpenVMS Forum!

As one of my better professors once said, "The only stupid questions are the ones not asked." Reasonably asked questions are never inappropriate.

That said, it is definitely a good idea to visit the OpenVMS FAQ. OpenVMS.org, a www site focused on the OpenVMS community, has pointers to several FAQs and related resources at http://www.openvms.org/pages.php?page=FAQs_Howto

I hope that the above is useful.
