Dear sir,
I've some backed up files from variuous locations stored in a folder c:\data
and i want to back fiels in that folder to a single file c:\data.zip

i used :
-============
strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colFolders = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * From Win32_Directory Where Name = 'C:\DBsBackup'")
For Each objFolder in colFolders
errResults = objFolder.Compress
Next
-============
i just need any kind of scripts to make it in scheduled task
but didn't work, any help ?

thanks

The Compress method compresses all files in the specified
folder. It does not "zip" them up. You should also modify your
code like so:
("Select * From Win32_Directory Where Name = 'C:\\DBsBackup'")

Have a look here why one single post, perhaps cross-posted, is
much better than the multiple posts you made:

Two points -
1 - (Pegasus) last time I looked, compressing a folder in XP (at least)
resulted in a zip archive. Windows attempts to hide that (or make it
invisible to the user), but if you look closer you should find the same
result on your system. I have used this fact on numerous occasions....
also the question was not how to zip - though it almost sounds that way at
first. All he wanted to do was schedule the code he has.

2 - (A. Sabry) To schedule you task - just add it to you scheduled tasks
in control panel. Use a command line invoking it with cscript and you
should be all set.

Thanks for your feedback. To verify your claim, I tried this
little experiment:
- Create a folder c:\Test.
- Populate it with a few files.
- Launch "My Computer".
- Right-click c:\Test, then click Properties, then Advanced.
- Tick "Compress contents to save disk space", then OK, then Apply.

The files in this folder are now compressed but there is no .zip file
in sight. Each files is individually visible. The native WinXP compression
method does not use the well-known zip-based compression
facility but its own algorithm that stores each file in a compressed
form.

The "Compress" method used by the OP does the same thing,
hence there is no .zip file.

If you can generate a .zip file with the VB Script "Compress"
method then I'd love to see your code.

Pegasus -
you had me for a second... I was sitting there wondering what went wrong
and realized the first problem. Let me explain... I normally do this from
the send-to menu. So, right click your C:\Test folder and scroll to the
'Send To' menu and then select 'Compressed (zipped) folder'. That is the
direct execution of the compress verb. That will generate a zipped folder..
but, if you have one of the zip variants installed you may not be able to
see the Send To option that I am talking about. Again, I have to admit
you had me stumped for a second. I used to believe the two methods were
identical... I'll have to think about that one a bit.

Happy compressing...

The way I do it is to right-click on a folder, select New..., and select
"Compressed (zipped) folder". Behaves like a folder in windows explorer, but
is actually a .zip file.

First you have to create an empty ZIP file named e.g. Empty.zip.
Then:

Dim fso, winShell, MyTarget, MySource
Set fso =3D CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
MySource =3D "c:\folder_to_zip"
MyTarget =3D "c:\zipped_folder.zip"
fso.CopyFile "Empty.zip", MySource
Set winShell =3D createObject("shell.application")

winShell.namespace(MyTarget).CopyHere MySource ' <-- This is the
COMMAND

Set winShell =3D Nothing
Set fso =3D Nothing

Drag and Drop the Files you wish to compress over this sample VBScript

http://www.scriptbox.at.tt/index.php?search=3DZip%20(compress)%20Files.vbs

Make some changes to the Script to perform your task.

I also need to compress a folder to a file (.zip) on Windows. One shoul be
able to do it with winzip (similar to old pkzip, or compress on UNIX) from
command prompt (need a winzip modual download). A better way would be to use
net send command to do the same thing with "Send to compressed (zipped)
Folder" from command prompt. However, I do not know the syntax. If any one
knows, please share.

Thanks, Doug

The purchased version of WinZip has a command line
tool called wzzip.exe that you can use to compress any
number of files to a common .zip file.
