VB.NET 2003 or 2005 application program.

i was trying to create an application program to compress some files using 7zip. when application program runs, need to browse and select the files need to be compressed and mention the name of the zip file and compress the file in that folder.

i google for some help. i'm getting examples only in C#.

Anyone know whether i can do this in VB.NET? if so, can you please help me and if possible can you please give an example?

Thanks in advance.

i checked and found some C# codes from this link...
http://www.7-zip.org/sdk.html
when i open that, it contain some classes. i'm not getting any idea how to call that class and compress files using 7zip.
can you please help me and if possible can you please give an example?
Thanks in advance.

You could use the Chilkat Tools (paid licence)

Or the OpenSource ZipLib

Or the native System.IO.Compression in .NET 2.0+ (Windows XP on)

it's working.

Thank you so much for the help...
