"it does not help me" is not informative and makes no sense. You are the one who is not helping yourself.

You can use the SHELL32 API. The Shell object recognises zip folders. The CopyHere and MoveHere methods are asynchronous, so multiple calls for the same zip folder may find the zip file locked but no error is returned to the calling application. Multiple calls require a delay. Multiple files using wildcards in one call are synchronous (sequential) so this doesn't apply.

The line of code shown in your post makes no sense at all, this part: "ABC.zip\\AUDIT.LOG". Who told you that a path can go continue into the zip file? Read DotNetZip documentation and use the product the intended way, not the way your fantasy tells you:

If you don't wanna help that's okay but don't criticize. It's showing your mentality and which family you come from. @SA

I wish I was such a formidable vision :-).

Anyway, the idea to discuss your views of personal quality of members is absolutely unacceptable here,
and your advice on what to post and what not contradicts to the whole idea of knowledge and learning. Besides, it is not clear why do you think you are more free than other people. You think you have the rights ask whatever you want and even break the basic rules of the forums, and, at the same time, you deny the rights of others to criticize you, which is done, by the way, only to help you. Set aside the fact that you fail no notice the help you receive.
