Closing PKZIP (OpenInsight Specific)

We use PKZIP to compress Deployments.
The OI installation program runs PKUNZIP to de-compress the deployment which is then run by RDKINSTALL.
At present the window running PKUNZIP does not close automatically.
The user needs to close the PKUNZIP window.
Is there anyway to close the Unzip window automatically when the unzip is completed?

Greg,
Can you use this?
I run PKZIP from an app myself but prefer to leave the DOS window open so the user can see if there were any error messages.

You might want to consider the WinZip Self Extractoror another windows program that unzips files without any prompts or DOS boxes.

Greg,
You could also call PKUNZIP using Command.com with the /C switch like so:
Utility( "RUNWIN", "command.com /C pkunzip.exe -d somefile.zip" )
etc….
This runs PKUNZIP in a DOS box and closes the window straight after.
