Hi Nick, I created a .doc file with an embedded MP3 (that is, I dragged an MP3 file from Finder and dropped it into the document whereupon Word displayed a small image of a loudspeaker - I took this as a positive sign!). I then added some text for good measure and saved it, taking care to save it as "Word 97 - 2004". Then I ran POIFSLister -sizes on it and got:
Root Entry - SummaryInformation <(0x05)SummaryInformation> [4096 / 0x1000] DocumentSummaryInformation <(0x05)DocumentSummaryInformation> [4096 / 0x1000] WordDocument [9152 / 0x23c0] 1Table [7280 / 0x1c70] CompObj <(0x01)CompObj> [96 / 0x60] Looking closer in the debugger, I discovered that none of the entries shown are of type DirectoryNode, so I cannot even start the process of finding / extracting the MP3. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Thanks, - Chris Thanks Nick, must have missed that. Will check it out.
