Hello.
I have a zip archive with a file that i want to link to. This process should
be automatic because is to run on a daily basis.
The zip utility i use is PowerArchive and the zip archive is a .gz file. The
file contained on the archive doesn't have extension and the name can vary.
Is it possible to automate the extraction of the file and rename it to, for
instance, "aaa.txt" ?

Thanks,
Luis

This would be more a question for PowerArchiver.  It would need to have a
command line interface that would allow you to unzip and hopefully rename
from a command line.  You could then use the Shell function to execute the
unzip.  If renaming is not an option, then you could use the File Open/Save
dialog API to select the file and rename or import or whatever.
