Hi,
I am running into an issue I'm trying to resolve using a ZIP test. I set up a folder structure to the following.

[ZipTest]
zipTest.txt
[German]
german.txt
[Subfolder]
subfolder.txt
[English]
english.txt

I then created a project that has 1 step to zip the ZipTest folder and all subfolders. I only setup the exclude files. What I'm trying to do is not zip any files under the German folder. I can do this by using an exclude statement:

/German/*.*

But for my real app what I need to happen is exclude all files that are in a German folder I've tried all these to no avail. The only one that works is if I give the full path/*.* from the start of the root zip folder.

All of these don't work I either get the german files or I get nothing.

**/German
/German
/*German
/German*

Any ideas on how I can do this. I'm trying to avoid having to use 10 different folder names with German in our bld project.

Thanks,
Keith

This is supported in the Enhanced ZIP Files action in v8.0.
