Not good - too many documents are created by copying others and replacing their contents. Which is why metadata when it exists is almost always false (just what the software autofiled during the creation of the root doc) If you want to keep is simple - just use the filename. If you want it to be accurate - metadata is as insufficient as the filename (and often worse - at least the filename must be kept unique in a single dir) Regards, -- Nicolas Mailhot
