Hi,
i wanted to do an Unzip file without using the references from Shell and Automation however currently i am facing issue of doing late blind then a early blind as early blind work in unzip my files
Here is my vba code


VBA Code:
Sub UnzipAll()
    'Define Variable Data Types
    Dim sourceFolder As String
    Dim destinationFolder As String
    Dim objZipItems As FolderItems
    Dim objZipItem As FolderItem

    ' Get the current user's username
    userName = Environ("USERNAME")

    'Set the source and destination folders
    sourceFolder = "C:\Users\" & userName & "\Desktop\Price checker for FA\"
    destinationFolder = "C:\Users\" & userName & "\Desktop\Price checker for FA\"

    'Early Binding Reference
    'Add Tools -> Reference -> "Microsoft Shell Controls & Automation"
    Dim wShApp As Shell
    Set wShApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
    
    ' Check if there are any zip files in the source folder
    If Dir(sourceFolder & "*.zip") = "" Then
        MsgBox "No zip files found in the source folder."
        Exit Sub
    End If
    
    'Loop through all ZIP files in the source folder
    Dim file As Variant
    file = Dir(sourceFolder & "*.zip")

    Do While file <> ""
        'Set Zip File Name
        Dim zipFileName As String
        zipFileName = sourceFolder & file

        ' Check if the file path is valid before attempting to extract its contents
        If Len(Dir(zipFileName)) = 0 Then
            MsgBox "Invalid file path: " & zipFileName
            Exit Sub
        End If

        'Extract: Unzip all Files to Folder
        Set objZipItems = wShApp.Namespace(zipFileName).Items
        wShApp.Namespace(destinationFolder).CopyHere objZipItems

        'Move to the next file
        file = Dir
    Loop

    MsgBox "All ZIP files extracted successfully."
End Sub

If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
