writing a batch file

[Protocol]

I want to write a batch file to first zip the folder and then to copy the zip file to another location/computer using the xcopy command . Can someone please help

You need WinZip Command Line to do that. That will allow you to create a file that will contain the arguments to the files and/or folders to be zipped.

Without this option, it will not be possible for you to do that.

Good luck

PS: WinZip Command Line only works with WinZip Pro
