hi all. I am a newbie, so be kind. I am using ARCView GIS 9.1 and python win. I am trying to develop a module using the GZIP module in my ARCView map session. What I am attempting to do (I think) is use the zip mod to zip up all the files in a .mxd document into one neat little zipped file, ready to copy to cd or email(if it's small enough(.
I got this idea while using autocad. There is a function in autocad (E-TRANSMIT) that allows you to press the button on the toolbar and it will zip up all files(and dependent files too) in the current drawing and have it in one zip file ready for email. I thought ESRI would think of this but when I've posted this to the message boards, there is no response. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Maybe I could use VBA or something else?
