Zip a folder with Labview

I am working on a project where I need to send an email to a set recipient when my input data changes. I have that part working, however i need to send about 20 images at a time. I think the best way regarding this project would be to send a folder containing those 20 images. The problem I am running into is that I can only email the folder if it is in .zip format. Is there any way to use labview to take a folder from my desktop and send it to a .zip folder? I have tried using the system exec vi to zip a folder with command prompt inputs, but to no avail.

Thanks in advance.
