G'day Paul,
Try this:
To make a sub-directory in the current directory:
SET VAR vComSpec = (ENVVAL('COMSPEC'))
ZIP &vComSpec /C MD Reminder
To print a file:
SET VAR vComSpec = (ENVVAL('COMSPEC'))
SET VAR vCmd TEXT = ('ZIP' & .vComSpec & '/C PRINT ' + .vFileName)
&vCmd
To copy contents of disk to database directory:
SET VAR vComSpec = (ENVVAL('COMSPEC'))
SET VAR vCmd TEXT = ('ZIP' & .vComSpec & '/C COPY A:*.* C:\RB\DB')
