library.zip and 7zip

[Jaco Smuts]

thanks guys, 

yep I am sure. went as far as copying the commands and pasting them into a 
batch  file

come to  think of it, I got the same response when my database could not 
be found.

fixed it by finding the database (have yet to include a try except to 
cater for that exception)

it's a long shot,, but I will test and see what that  does.

thanks for the help

jaco

Ah - I missed the -tzip option :( Hmm - so it *should* work -
technically.

Jaco - are you *absolutely* positive that you are using -tzip? Just in
case it's a simple mistake (typo, etc).
