I have a utility I am building to help with configuration control with various projects. I would like to be able to take any kind of file (text, .MDB, .XLS, .PPT, .DOC and do like I manually do in Windows Explorer.
By manually right-clicking on the file, I select properties. When that is open, I am given the opportunity to record Title, Subject, Author, Keywords, and Comments. In addition, I can make up attributes such as "version", "test date", etc and store that info in the file as documentation. I refer to this as "branding" the file.
Does anyone know how to do this in VB code so that it handles all types of files. I understand that the way you do it for a text file is different from .MDB files, which is different than for Excel files.
You help is apprecitated ahead of time ... thanks!
