DSOFile.dll or DSOleFile.dll - which one???

P

Paul Bromley

I posted the following in the VB.NET newsgroup with no response - anyone
here know??

I am using VB.NET with word and the dsofile package.

I have been pondering over this one all night!! I want to read the
properties of a Word document WITHOUT opening it - notably the title
document. Having read the newsgroups it seems that I neede to download from
the MS site the DSOFile package containing the said DLL. However on looking
in the newsgroups the best option to me seems to be using the
DSOleFile.PropertyReader and then the GetDocumentProperties property, but
this seems to be associated with the DSOleFile.dll file which I do not
have - and cannot find, although this is mentioned in the same postings re
DSOFile.dll. Can someone help me out with this one - I am very confused. As
I understand it of I use DSOFile.dll I would have to open the Word document
before getting the properties. I am accessing maybe up to 100 word documents
at a time across a network and then I want to load the file titles into a
treeview. Help please.

Best wishes

Paul Bromley
