I have .txt file and I want to archive this file into .zip archive but I want to do that from VB code. After that I would like to move archived file into folder I choose with cdlg control.

you can use the winzip32.exe to zip the file.

call shell("C:\Program Files\WinZip32.exe <parameters>", vbHide)

for the parameter list, you can refer WinZip documentation.

Hope this helps!
