Dim zip As New Chilkat.Zip

// ...
// ...
Dim pattern As String
pattern = "*.txt"

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// The FirstMatchingEntry method is deprecated:

Dim entryObj As Chilkat.ZipEntry
entryObj = zip.FirstMatchingEntry(pattern)
If (zip.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(zip.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// ...
// ...

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Do the equivalent using EntryMatching.
// Your application creates a new, empty ZipEntry object which is passed 
// in the last argument and filled upon success.

Dim ze As New Chilkat.ZipEntry
Dim success As Boolean
success = zip.EntryMatching(pattern,ze)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(zip.LastErrorText)
