Read Summary from Properties

[Paul Haboeck]

Hi

Who has an idea how to read in a existing Worddocument from the file
properties the summary and in this summary the comments. It should return a
string. And i should read it with VB from a access project.


Thank you for help.

Paul

Hi, Paul,

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=224351 for a DLL and a sample VB
project that can read Office file properties, including the Comments field.

For another sample, go to
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/MacrosVBA/DSOFile.htm and download the
template linked from that page.
