Huh?

You can send Windows commands via the 'system' DXL function. If your DXL creates a text file, you can display it to the user like this:

system (
"Notepad.exe " NameFile)

Notepad.exe is in the 'path', probably /Windows.

I'm sure WinZip has command line parameters, so perhaps you can do something like this:

string NameZipFile = 
"c:/My Documents/MyZipFile.zip"   

void   AddFileToZip(string NameZipFile, NameOtherFile) 
{      
// add the file to the Zip file, creating it if needed 
// I don't know the command line options, nor where WinZip is located, 
//     so the following is just an example. system(
"c:/Program Files/Winzip/winzip.exe -ZipFile " NameZipFile 
" -add " NameOtherFile 
"") 
} AddFileToZip(NameZipFile, 
"c:/My Documents/MyFirstFile.txt") AddFileToZip(NameZipFile, 
"c:/My Documents/MyOtherFile.txt") AddFileToZip(NameZipFile, NameZipFile)  
// Just for fun to see what happens.


What do you mean by 'attachment of files'?
