ExtractZIPFile

Post by ayoshino » Tue Jan 14, 2025 7:56 am

Hi,
Maybe this is a first time to post.
I am currently stuck with the ZipExtractFiles function.
The file I download from a certain website always comes in ZIP format.
I suspect the issue is due to the file name being encoded in SJIS, which causes garbled characters. When I extract the file and use GetFileList to list the contents, the result is empty.
Thank you.

The internal zip command is ASCII.

I suggest using an external zip tool and use Macro Scheduler to run it via command line.
