Are any of Publishers properties or objects accessible through VB? Any SDK
available? Primarily need to extract text from text boxes in large list of
files. Using MS Access probably.

Since Publisher 2002, Publisher has had an object model accessible
through COM and COM interop. It is documented in VBAPB10.CHM (which is
readable in an external reader in Publisher 2002 and 2003, but only in
the VBA IDE or online in Publisher 2007). It is somewhat limited in
Publisher 2002, but much better in 2003 and 2007. If you're calling
Publisher from another application, you'll need to add references to the
Microsoft Publisher Object Library and the corresponding Microsoft
Office Object Library.
