Hi,
I need to find a way to edit by VB6 the file summary properties (when you right-click on a file in Windows Explorer). I know there is DSOFile, but this is limited to Microsoft Office documents. I also have an ActiveX (Atalasoft ImageX) that support Exif and IPC, but is there an other way. I know that FSO do not support that, but my guess is that there is an API that can do the job...


Thanks for any help you can provide. blink.gif

I think this is what you are looking for:
  • SetFileAttributes : Sets a file’s attributes.
  • SetFileTime : Sets the date and time that a file was
    created, last accessed, or last
    modified.

not really, changing file attribute is fine, i need to be able to edit the summary fields (author, keywords, comments...), right-click on a JPG in Windows Explorer and select Properties then select the TAB Summary, you'll see what I mean. The summary properties are differents from file type to file type. I know it is easy to do it in .NET, but I need a way to do it in VB6...

Hi there!

I have read that you know how to write file summary in .NET! Can you please send me a test application or a sample code to see what to implement and import! I have found DSOFile for office documents but nothing else. Can you please help me?

Thanks
