Well I don't like the way you are using AnsiString to hold binary data
for one thing. AnsiString /can/ be used for that but it's asking for
trouble. In your case I don't think that's the problem but it's an ugly
solution.

Is this calculation yielding a large enough value?

The documentation in the header discusses return values and states:

"..Z_BUF_ERROR if no progress is possible or if there was not enough
room in the output buffer when Z_FINISH is used."
