Parameters

FileFilter
Object

Optional Object. A string specifying file filtering criteria.This string consists of pairs of file filter strings followed by the MS-DOS wildcard file filter specification, with each part and each pair separated by commas. Each separate pair is listed in the Files of type drop-down list box. For example, the following string specifies two file filters — text and addin: "Text Files (.txt),.txt,Add-In Files (.xla),.xla".To use multiple MS-DOS wildcard expressions for a single file filter type, separate the wildcard expressions with semicolons, for example, "Visual Basic Files (.bas; .txt),.bas;.txt".If omitted, this argument defaults to "All Files (.),.".

FilterIndex
Object

Optional Object. Specifies the index numbers of the default file filtering criteria, from 1 to the number of filters specified in FileFilter. If this argument is omitted or greater than the number of filters present, the first file filter is used.

Title
Object

Optional Object. Specifies the title of the dialog box. If this argument is omitted, the title is "Open."

ButtonText
Object

Optional Object. Macintosh only.

MultiSelect
Object

Optional Object. True to allow multiple file names to be selected. False to allow only one file name to be selected. The default value is False.
