Actullay i want to use winzip in my visual basic program and through that i want to zip or unzip html files. so i want to know how i can use winzip in my vb program through coding.

Yea, what you are looking for is a component that you can reference in your VB project; this will expose an object that you can use to zip/unzip files.
