Default unzipping a file

Hi,
I need to unzip a file and extract a excel spreadsheet

If you use Winzip then you can do this

Check out the Winzip website for this Add-on
http://www.winzip.com/wzcline.htm

Afer you install this you can use something like this

Try this for unzip test.zip from C:\ to C:\

Sub test()
Shell "c:\program files\winzip\wzunzip c:\test.zip c:\"
End Sub
