Remarks
The string passed to and received from the FilterPaths property is the same string shown on the File Paths tab in the Options dialog box (click Options on the Tools menu). This string is stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Visio\application\FiltersPath32.
Unlike similar properties such as AddonPaths and TemplatePaths, you can name only one path in the FilterPaths property and Visio will not look for filters in the subfolders of the path you specify.
If a path is not fully qualified, Visio looks for the folder in the folder that contains the Visio program files (appObj.Path).
