Extract ZIP files in vb.net

[Jeff123]

Hi,

I am having trouble finding out about how this can be done. I hoped it would be nice and easy, although .net does not seem to have an inbuilt function for extracting the files within a .zip file.

I have looked around at a few controls on the web but none of them seem easy to use or have either been for C or handheld devices.

Does anyone have any experience with extracting zipped files in vb.net? Any help or guidance would be appreciated!

Thanks
Jeff

I'm having trouble using SharpZipLib.

All the samples i saw was for a *.zip file, containing various files. But what i have is a compress file.

How do i uncompress a file using SharpZipLib ?
