Instead of waiting 2 years, maybe you should learn to google. :o)

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=%2Bdelphi+%2Btar+%2Breading

The 4th link is www.torry.net/compressstd.htm

Which contains a link for the free source of
Common Archiver Kit v.1.0.37
http://www.torry.net/compressstd.htm#6337

Please note it requires some parts of the Common Archiver Kit Install
Pack, also listed (just below it infact).

Hope this helps.

Dodgy.
