Hello All,

I really never understood the problems mentioned with empty directories
but in a posting of Alistair George- subject New format,
I found this sentence :

b) the zipdll will not handle empty directories eg c:\jobs has no files, but
has
several directories within containing files. If c:\jobs\*.* is sent to the
DLL
it wont zip the contents.

Can I conclude that this is a good description of the problem?

I always understood 'empty' as meaning contains nothing,
but since I am not English speaking I probably misunderstood

With this new knowledge I can investigate further
