  Exexute Process task,

  you state the likes of the working directory and type a command as you would in a CMD window. The command is specific to the app you are using, say for example Winzip (which does cost $$ for a license).

  I've also downloaded 7-zip and plan to try it out using the command line interface. It supports 24 different formats including, zip, gzip, tar, rar, cab and z.

  Here is an example of a script task that unzips zip files:

  It's a simple C# script, so if you translate it to VB, it will work for 2005 as well.
