    Hello :-D I have the problem of packing multiple XML files with TAR format. I am using the language Visual Basic 6, with which I create from one to less than 500 XML files, to later want to pack them with the TAR format, generating a file called package.tar, which in turn I will have to compress with GZIP to finally build a file called package.tar.gz I tried the code of this website https://github.com/wqweto/VszLib, but I can only create files called package.7z Does anyone have any idea how to solve my problem? :sigh: Excuse me for my writing, it is that I do not speak english, and I translated this message with googletranslate from spanish. Bye

      Nobody uses VB6 any more. It's been obsolete for over 20 years. You're going to have to write that code yourself if there are no prewritten libraries. You can Google for "tar vb6" and start looking at the results.

        Use an external program; there's some command-line executables that create tars', and VB6 can easily execute those. ..but if it is an important application, you better start upgrading.
