[mappan]

I need to access all the titles, subject, Authors of some word documents. How can I accomplish this using VB code?

Thanks.

You should be able to use of these. If you are using VB, not VBA, then you will have to reference the Word Object

ThisDocument.Name
ActiveDocument.Name

wdApp.ThisDocument.Name
wdApp.ActiveDocument.Name

Hope this helps!

Asuming Word is running and you have a reference to Microsoft Word 8.0 Object Library in your VB project references:

debug.print ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Subject").value

debug.print ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties("Author").value

.... etc
