| mode | Required. A mcfmFileMode enumeration, as described in settings. |
| extensions | Required. A Variant value. |
| descriptions | Required. A Variant value. |
Settings
The settings for mode are:
|

|
| mcSTREAM_WRITE | 2 |
open the file to write it to a new or existing image file
|

Remarks
This method is used by the Open and SaveAs dialog boxes to populate the File Formats drop down box.
The method does not instantiate any Subclasses, but uses the Registry to query for McStream information.
The extensions and descriptions arrays have a 1-1 relationship so that descriptions(n) contains the description for the Stream with extension extensions(n).
