Unpack Specified File from RAR Archive

This module is a wrapper for the unrar.dll freely available from www.rarlab.com

Enables unpacking a specified file from a RAR archive, both to disk as a file or only to memory (string variable) as the file text.

There are a couple of other posts on RAR archives, and extracting a single file from an archive has not been demonstrated, and I needed this functionality for my ZipSearch project.

Thought others might be interested in this functionality - reuse as you see fit.

Note that the declares for the library functions are named unrar and unrar3 depending on the version you have. Get a free copy of this DLL from:

www.rarlab.com - Extras
www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm - UnRAR.dll
ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/UnRARDLL.exe

Happy coding :)
