Getting at ACROBAT pdf file properties

Does anyone know what I need to query Acrobat pdf file properties from
my asp.net page? I've found various examples that use this:

x = InputBox("Enter complete path to PDF File")
Dim opdf As Object
opdf = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
opdf.Open(x)
Dim y As String
y = opdf.GetInfo("Title")
MsgBox(y)
opdf = Nothing

I can add a reference to my vb project from the COM tab to 'Acrobat
Access 2.0 Type Library', but there's no class called AcroExch in
there. I have Adobe 5.0 and 6.0 installed on the pc.

Do I need something else installed, like an Acrobat SDK, or are there
other versions, such as 'PRO', to get at this class?

Thanks for any tips,
Bob

Apparently AcroExch is part of the full version of Acrobat, not the
free reader.

Thanks Phillip, I'll go investigate if anyone has a copy handy for me.
