>>>Hi everybody,
>>>
>>>I want to have a dialog (could be a Getfile or something more fancy) that will only allow to select documents: Word files, Excel, PDFs, Visio (and AutoCad) drawings and text files.
>>>
>>>Do you know how can I code this functionality?
>>>
>>>Thanks in advance.

>>Getfile() allows you to specify the file extensions as the first parameter.
>>Also look at the componenent gallery->foundation class->dialogs->common dialog.

>Yes, I know - the question is more of how to define all the extensions (filters) I need to put.

HKEY_CLASS_ROOT in the registry shows all the extensions.
