Remarks

The Verbs property enables you to determine the verbs that can be used with the file specified by the FileName property. You can set the Verb property to the value of any verb in the set. Examples of verbs are "Edit", "Open", "OpenAsReadOnly", "Print", and "Printto".

Be aware that the resulting list of verbs may not contain all possible values, e.g. "New" is by design not added to the list and other possible verbs are not always detected depending on your system setup.

When you use the Verbs property, you must include the file name extension when you set the value of the FileName property. The file name extension determines the set of possible verbs.
