Default Open Data Source Dialog Box

Hi ?B?S2FyZW5T?=,

Is it possible to set a default in the File Open dialogue box so that "All
Files (*.*)" is the default?

Version of Word?

Hi ?B?S2FyZW5T?=,

File Open dialog box, or "Open Data source"? Assuming the latter (as it makes
more sense) try this:

Sub TestOpenDataSource()
SendKeys "*.*{Enter}"
With Dialogs(wdDialogMailMergeOpenDataSource)
'.Name = "*.*" 'No effect
.Show
End With
End Sub
