Hi all, I've got a backup script that I'm using to zip the files after getting all the data copied to a backup directory. -With the code below, the zip file contains the full path of the uncompressed files, any way to not store directory names/structures for the zipped files? -How can I test the zip files, I can't seem to find a equiv' to the -t switch of regular unzip. Tnx! 
 my $bfile = "c:\\backups\\datafile_01.dbf";
 my $fsize = floor((-s $bfile) / 1024);
 my $bfiledst = $bfile . ".zip";

 my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();
 my $member = $zip->addFile($bfile, $bfile);
 $member->desiredCompressionMethod( COMPRESSION_DEFLATED );
 $member->desiredCompressionLevel( 9 );
 push @summary, "Error compressing $bfile\n" if ($zip->writeToFileName
+d($bfiledst) != AZ_OK);
 my $cfsize = floor((-s $bfiledst) / 1024);
 print "Compressed $bfile ($fsize K) to $bfiledst ($cfsize K)\n";
