The "Content Type" is a part of the HTTP (and email) header(s), and as such
will not be found inside a file.

Your best shot is probably to use the registry, where the key
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type contains a subkey for each MIME
type - each with a value named Extension.  If you start with a file name,
you can look up the file's extension (including the leading dot) under
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.  If the extension has a registered content type, it
contains a Value named Content Type.

HTH,
Tore.
