Tested in both, Final Exe and Developement Enviroment.

I really don´t have any Idea what I am doing wrong.

Hello,

I'm working on a widget to simplify the process.
I think it will be ready in a few days. Meanwhile, can you give me your "wish-list" for this component?

Cheers!

Well I don´t know what could be a serious wishlist, but some points I would like to see in the widget could be:
1. Give the Archive a name through a specified Field.
2. Add Files to the Archive.
2.1 Rename Files in the Archive (would be nice if it is possible)
3. Upload Archive to a specified FTP Server (well once the archive is created I can take use of the Internet Library of Revolution so this isn´t really important)
4. Extract Files to a specified Folder/ Directory

Well I hope these points are usefull and realistic;)

I think I can do that in this week (even if I can get some delay since Christmas is almost here!)

Widget is almost completed. I'm completing extracting procedure, then I need to finalize some "utilities" like file information, etc...

I still need to apply some small improvements to the component, but basically it is fully functional.
