Changing type of custome document properties

[Stephen English]

I posted this the other day but it never appeared

I have many documents where I want to change a custom document property with type Date to type text. I use the WriteProps / ReadProps code from the MVP site
Overwriting it with the new type does not work and I have worked out that I can do it manually by deleting the cDP and then rewriting it
My question is how do I delete a CDP by code please
Thank
Stephen

Doc.CustomDocumentProperties("MyProp").Delete

Use error trapping or 'on error resume next' if there's a possibility the
property doesn't exist.
