I just found a way to use some of the file block functions to create a zip file by doing a LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress function calls to the Enhancement DLLs. What I need to know is if it is alright to do so whithout violating anything with TGC.

Also, I need to know when an SDK version will become available so that I won't have to hack the code. I will also need to know if there are any legal issues involved with using ZIP files for media storage.
Thanks.

You shouldn't do it that way, mainly because if the parameters or order of them changes, it'll crash your program.

It may also violate the licensing agreement too.

I dont know when an update will be availiable for the enhancement pack though...

Can you "post" your hack until they say otherwise? I think a lot of other people have the same issues.

Give me a few days to organize the code into something recognizable.

Damn!! I tested more functions from the Enhancement Pack but found that the extraction functions do not work. It seems that the Enhancement Pack works only in DBPro. Sorry, guys.
