Is there a way to write out a file and cause it to be an encoded zip file
from an asp.net page?
At the moment, I am writing out a csv file that a user can download from my
site. But the problem is that the file will be clear text and I am going to
be putting in some personal information that should be private. I was
thinking of just creating a zip file that is password protected but I need
to automate that.
Is there a way to do this from asp.net or is there a better way to
accomplish what I am trying to do?
Thanks,
Tom

There's a free library over at: http://www.icsharpcode.com/
I haven't used it in a while though, I've also used the zip component from www.componentone.com

I've heard good things about this 3rd party component: http://xceed.com/Zip_Net_Intro.html
You might also consider using the new .NET 3.0 System.IO.Packaging namespace
to compress with it's DRM encryption.
Here's more info on that: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...packaging.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms771554.aspx

I was going to look at the ISharpCode component first. Not sure which is
better but I thought I would start there.

I am using asp.net 1.1 and it seems to be for 2.0 as the samples use VS
2005. I don't know if it would do what I want, however. Couldn't tell from
the docs.
Thanks,
Tom
