Extract a single file from a Compressed Folder (Zip file)
Hi guys
Given a certain criteria in a filename, I would like to programmatically extract a single file from a zip file (compressed folder) that may have one or many files in it. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance Paul Martin Melbourne, Australia |

Thanks for the response, Ron. That looks like it might do what I want
it to, though it'll be a while before I can try it.

Thanks Ron, that's working just fine. I'm using the line code you
commented out to select a specific file. Paul On Sep 16, 2:41 pm, Paul Martin wrote: Thanks for the response, Ron.

Extract a single file from a Compressed Folder (Zip file)
I've been using the below code with success, but now it's failing at
oApp.Namespace(TEMP_FOLDER).CopyHere. I get a Windows (not VBA) error saying "the file exists." The temp folder is in fact empty. Any suggestions? Private Sub LoopThruFileItems(ByVal varZipFullPath As Variant) Dim oApp As Object Dim objFile As Object Dim strCSVFullPath As String Set oApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application") TEMP_FOLDER = Environ("USERPROFILE") & "\Desktop\TEMP\" For Each objFile In oApp.Namespace(varZipFullPath).Items If Left(objFile.Name, 6) = "int140" Then ' Copy required file item from zip to temp folder oApp.Namespace(TEMP_FOLDER).CopyHere _ oApp.Namespace(varZipFullPath).Items.Item(objFile. Name) ' Extract data, then delete the file item extracted from the zip file strCSVFullPath = TEMP_FOLDER & objFile.Name ExtractData strCSVFullPath Workbooks(objFile.Name).Close False Kill strCSVFullPath End If Next objFile End Sub On Sep 17, 9:55*am, Paul Martin wrote: Thanks Ron, that's working just fine. *I'm using the line code you commented out to select a specific file.
