I'm looking for any type of compression functions that will allow me to 
compress files to a set of distribution disks and decompress them upon
installation (like Microsoft's expand.exe).  Any ideas, comments, and/or
solutions are welcomed!  

Oh yeah, I'm using Visual Basic at the moment...but I'm sort of making a 
BC++/VB hybrid program.

Thanks in advance...
Mario
