Thanks for the code Irina.



If anyone's interested, here it is in JScript.




 //Specifies the location of the zip file.


  var ZipFile = "D:\\Test\\Test.zip";


  //Specifies the folder the contents should be extracted to. 


  var ExtractTo = "D:\\Test";


  // If the extraction location does not exist, create it. 


  var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"); 


  if ( !fso.FolderExists(ExtractTo) ){    


    fso.CreateFolder(ExtractTo);


  }


  //Extract the contents of the zip file.


  var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application"); 


  var FilesInZip =  objShell.NameSpace(ZipFile).Items(); 


  objShell.NameSpace(ExtractTo).CopyHere(FilesInZip);


  fso = null;


  objShell = null;
