DLGOPEN <FILTERS='filters' <IMPORT> <SUBMIT|NOSUBMIT> <VERIFY>>

FILTERS='filters'
specifies one or more file filters to use as search criteria when displaying files. For example
   DLGOPEN FILTERS="*.sas *.txt"
displays all files in the current directory that have a .sas extension and adds *.txt to the File type combo box in the dialog box. You can specify multiple filters; they all appear in the combo box. If you do not specify any filters, the dialog box displays a default list. See the description of the SAS.pattern resource in Miscellaneous Resources for information on specifying a default file pattern.

IMPORT
invokes the Import Image dialog box, which allows you to import graphic files to SAS/GRAPH applications.

SUBMIT|NOSUBMIT
specifies whether the SUBMIT command is pushed after the file is opened.

VERIFY
checks whether the DLGOPEN command is appropriate for the active window.


Details

The Open and Import dialog boxes allow you to select a file to read into the active window. If the active window is a SAS/GRAPH window, then the Import dialog box is displayed; otherwise, the Open dialog box is displayed. To access these dialog boxes from the pull-down menus, select
