Default winzip - rondebruin's instructions

Hi Ron - Yes, I want to zip each file in the folder - I thought I picked the
right one from your link, but it's zipping the folder ...
If possible, I'd like to keep the original names of the files in the zipped
files.

PS - I know you must hear this all the time, but your website and samples
are great -

Hi Theo

Do you want to zip each file in the folder in a seperate zip file ?

See the Winzip pages on my site if you use winzip
You have more control then

Hi all - I am looking for something to create winzip files for EACH workbook
in C:\Test\ below. (Code comes from Ron's website above)
But I am getting a winzip folder instead.
Any help on tweaking it to create individual winzip files would be great
(preferably using the same name instead of the date/time).
Thanks

Sub NewZip(sPath)
'Create empty Zip File
'Changed by keepITcool Dec-12-2005
If Len(Dir(sPath)) 0 Then Kill sPath
Open sPath For Output As #1
Print #1, Chr$(80) & Chr$(75) & Chr$(5) & Chr$(6) & String(18, 0)
Close #1
End Sub
