I'm trying to decompress an archive from a C program and I use

system("unzip prueba.zip");

I intend to have an "unzip.bat" that will do the work, containing the 
details about format.

but when there is no "unzip.bat" nor "unzip.exe" I get an interactive 
shell launched. I need to get an error code from system() and not to 
stop execution of main program.

I'm running WinXP

Does anybody know about this?
Thanks
