I don't know of any utility that will give you the names of the files in a
zip archive in a way you can get into Excel. You may need to read the file
in binary form and decode it. The specs for a zip file can be found at:

It will be a challenge to write a routine to decode the file header info,
but that is all I can think of doing. Good luck!
