I think I'm getting close but with the wrong programming language... filename: test.vbs code: Set objFile = CreateObject("DSOFile.OleDocumentProperties") objFile.Open("C:\test.txt") Wscript.Echo "Category: " & objFile.SummaryProperties.Category
With the help of dsofile.dll the above reads the "Category" attribute of test.txt. Mark Bystry wrote the following on 2/22/2007 1:01 PM: > Actually no. I want to change the Windows metadata.
