Finding information related to headings

[Infinity]

I have hundreds of legacy documents that I need to add to a index database. I
am looking for a way within Word to search on Criteria such as Author,
creation data, update date , doument revison etc. The intention is to put a
block of files in a dedicated directory, run a routine containing a list of
criteria such as above. Ideally the results which would be reported back on
each document should give any information held in the document against each
criteria, i.e. Author would indicate a name that would be written to a file
that could be imported into Excel and then indexed . Any help on this would
be greatly appreciated as at present I have no idea and am doing the search
manually. Regards Bill Warden
