A collection of FileDialogFilter objects that represent the types of files that can be selected in a file dialog box that is displayed using the FileDialog object.

public interface class FileDialogFilters : Microsoft::Office::Core::_IMsoDispObj, System::Collections::IEnumerable

[System.Runtime.InteropServices.Guid("000C0365-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")]
public interface FileDialogFilters : Microsoft.Office.Core._IMsoDispObj, System.Collections.IEnumerable

[<System.Runtime.InteropServices.Guid("000C0365-0000-0000-C000-000000000046")>]
type FileDialogFilters = interface
    interface _IMsoDispObj
    interface IEnumerable

Public Interface FileDialogFilters
Implements _IMsoDispObj, IEnumerable

Attributes: GuidAttribute

Implements: _IMsoDispObj IEnumerable

Remarks

Use the Filters property of the FileDialog object to return a FileDialogFilters collection.

Use the Add(String, String, Object) method to add FileDialogFilter objects to the FileDialogFilters collection.

When changing the FileDialogFilters collection, remember that each application can only instantiate a single FileDialog object. This means that the FileDialogFilters collection will reset to its default filters whenever you call the FileDialog method with a new dialog box type.

Note A run-time error will occur if the Filters property is used in conjunction with the Clear(), Add, or Delete(Object) methods when applied to a Save As FileDialog object.
