Hi,

Use one of the view kind constants. For example:

_applicationObject.Documents.Open(docPath, Constants.vsViewKindCode, false);

Well, let's start with this quote from MSDN:

"This method supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended
to be used directly from your code."

Thus the reason the documentation is poor on this method, it is not intended
to be called in code. That being said, try "Auto".

Also, the preferred way to do this is to use the ItemOperations.OpenFile()
method:

_applicationObject.ItemOperations.OpenFile(docPath, Constants.vsViewKindCode);

This method returns an EnvDTE.Window and you can access the EnvDTE.Document
that was opened through its Document property.
