Decompresses the data and returns it as string.
Example
dim s as string = "Hello World"
s=CompressZLibMBS(s,9)
s=DecompressZLibMBS(s,10000)

MsgBox s

As DecompressZLibMBS can't know the size of the decompressed data you should give it a hint. Best is to save the size of the decompressed data on compression. Else you must guess the size which can be 10 times the size of the compressed data.
Error: Optional parameter to receive the error code. (see error codes in ZLibCompressMBS)

Version 18.5 and newer ignore size and manage it automatically.
