Property Value

A string that contains information about the file filtering options available in the dialog box.

Remarks

The Filter property specifies a filter string with two filter options: one for XML files (*.xml), and one for all files (*.*).

A filter string contains one or more filter options. Each filter option contains a description of the filter, followed by the vertical bar (|) and the filter pattern. The strings for different filtering options are separated by the vertical bar.

The following is an example of a filter string that contains two filter options: "XML Files (*.xml)|*.xml|All Files (*.*)|*.*".

You can specify several filter patterns in a filter option by separating the filter patterns with semicolons. The following is an example of a filter string in which the first filter option specifies two filter patterns: "Custom XML Files (*.xml;*.xlst)|*.xml;*.xlst|All Files (*.*)|*.*".
