Execute launches a command line statement so it depends on what unzipping software you're using.

Look up the command line parameters for your software (Google should be able to help you out).

If you download winzip for example, the syntax would be:

Execute winzip32 -e [options] filename[.zip] folder

The following works with 7zip:

execute "c:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" e "C:\QVSource\Temp\My CSV File.zip" -y -oc:\QVSource\Temp

You will need 7zip installed and to change the second two underlined paths to suit your needs.
