Anyone know a good piece of shareware that will clean metadata from an excel workbook? I don't mind paying a developer a nominal fee post facto, but I need to be able, if possible, to download something tonight that I can use.

Many thanks--

Ben,

Please describe what you are referring to as metadata.

How many worksheets contain this data?

Is there other data that must be preserved?

I am talking about the data stored with a worksheet (or any office document) regarding author, edit history, properties, etc....

It's five separate workbook files that I am interested in scrubbing before submitting for review. Essentially I am looking to make sure that the history of the document isn't available, only the final product.

Sorry. Not aware of any such software.

You might try posting this in the VB 5&6 Forum forum222
