Self extracting executable

I would like to package the aplication EXE and a directory struture in one single file. (some what like CAB or ZIP)
When this file is move to another computer or even CD rom. it should run independently and extract the directory struture package, do some processing and again compress into a singel file.

I tried with MakeCAB and SetupAPI's SetupIterateCabinet() but still not clear about the right way.

Hi sachinx,

  You might need to go to winzip.com or rarlabs.com I think it is and look into using a winzip or winrar option. There are even objects that can do zip archives, but not sure about self extracting ones.

Cheers!
