GetDetailsOf
in [VbScript]

From: BillP on 6 Feb 2005 23:09 I've found numerous examples of this and understand its use but what I need is the opposite ... something like "SetDetailsOf" that will enable me to programatically set Comments, Author, Subject, etc. I'm running XP Pro and would prefer a VBScript (CScript) solution. *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com *** Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Unfortunatley there is no scriptable way to set extended properties, only read them... -- Michael Harris Microsoft MVP Scripting

I'd likely implement a (relatively) simple command line utility to call from my scripts. *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com *** Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
From: mayayana on 7 Feb 2005 09:25 I don't know much about this but I got curious and found a few things. You mean the properties in MS Office docs? Since extended properties in, say, a PDF would require dealing with a different file format, I'm assuming that there's no such thing as a generic reader/writer for such properties. For MS Office, if you go here: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=224351 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9ba6fac6-520b-4a0a- 878a-53ec8300c4c2&displaylang=en you can apparently download a plugin known as dsofile.dll that will give you a scriptable object: DSOleFile.PropertyReader According to this: http://blogs.msdn.com/gstemp/archive/2004/02/25/79867.aspx that object can be used to read and write Office doc properties. -- _____________________________ mayayXXana1a(a)mindYYspring.com For return email remove XX and YY. _____________________________ BillP <anonymous(a)devdex.com> wrote in message news:Oy2zH$NDFHA.3976(a)tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... > I don't mind doing a little programming (C, C++, C#) if you could > privide a pointer to the appropriate APIs or object model.
