OpenFileDialog filtering file names

I am opening file dialog at shown way but I need some advanced functionality if possible.

    With OpenFileDialog_Restore
        .Title = "Choose archive to open"
        .InitialDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(tempArch)
        .Filter = "My archives (*.7z;*.tar)|*.7z;*.tar|All Files(*.*) |*.*"
        .AddExtension = True
        .ShowDialog()
    End With

During to my program needs I would like to have shown ONLY files of asked type (not directories) but with ONLY file names which contain word "archive" inside name.

Is something like that possible?

Just set your filter accordingly.

With OpenFileDialog_Restore
    .Title = "Choose archive to open"
    .InitialDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(tempArch)
    .Filter = "My archives (*.7z;*.tar)|*archive*.7z;*archive*.tar|All Files(*.*) |*.*"
    .AddExtension = True
    .ShowDialog()
End With
