Attributes: GuidAttribute

Implements: _IMsoDispObj

Remarks

Each file filter determines which files are displayed in the file dialog box.

Use the Item(Int32) method with the FileDialogFilters collection to return a FileDialogFilter object. Use the Add(String, String, Object) method to add a FileDialogFilter object to the FileDialogFilters collection. You can return the extensions that a FileDialogFilter object uses to filter files with the Extensions property, and you can return the description of the filter with the Description property; however, both of these properties are read-only. If you want to set the extension or description, you must use the Add method.
