A colleague of mine is using the Shell command to run winzip and compress the files, with the 'Wait' parameter set to True, but sometimes when subsequent code tries to move the zip file, an exception occurs because the file is reported to be in use. I suspect that winzip is somehow slow at releasing the file, and Shell returns before this happens. Any ideas?
