' The FirstEntry method is deprecated:

Dim entryObj As Chilkat.ZipEntry = zip.FirstEntry()

End If

' Do the equivalent using EntryAt.

' Your application creates a new, empty ZipEntry object which is passed 
' in the last argument and filled upon success.

' The 1st entry is at index 0.
Dim ze As New Chilkat.ZipEntry
Dim success As Boolean = zip.EntryAt(0,ze)
