Dialogs Collection Object

  • Article
Word Developer Reference

A collection of Dialog objects in Word. Each Dialog object represents a built-in Word dialog box.

Remarks

Use the Dialogs property to return the Dialogs collection. The following example displays the number of available built-in dialog boxes.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  MsgBox Dialogs.Count

You cannot create a new built-in dialog box or add one to the Dialogs collection. Use Dialogs(Index), where Index is the WdWordDialog constant that identifies the dialog box, to return a single Dialog object. The following example displays the built-in Open dialog box.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  dlgAnswer = Dialogs(wdDialogFileOpen).Show
