          You are passing wildcards to FileAccess.FileDelete, which doesn't accept wildcards. Unfortunately the Chilkat API doesn't provide means to enumerate files in a directory, so if you want to stick to the Chilkat API you would have to delete the entire directory:



          fa.DirDelete("C:\TMP");


          Otherwise, using standard .NET:



          foreach (string file in Directory.EnumerateFiles(
          "C:\TMP",
          "untar001*.*" ,
          SearchOption.AllDirectories)
          )
          {
          fa.FileDelete(file);
          }

          You can use Chilkat to enumerate files in a directory, or enumerate files in an entire directory tree.



          See the DirTree class here: http://www.chilkatsoft.com/refdoc/csDirTreeRef.html
