Hello,
I'd like to read the extended file properties using C#. Those are e.g.
author, subject, ... of a word file or bit rate, artist, duration of a mp3
file. I already tried to use the storage properties provided by OLE, but
those only work for Office document. The explorer displays this information
but I have no clue to access from C#. Hints and Help are appreciated.
Regards,

Sounds like Nicholas Paldino's the guy who can help with this.
Good luck.

I already looked in the IProperties as proposed by Nicholas Paldino.
Unfortunatly this works only for MS Office documents (to be more precise,
for documents following OLE). E.g. it doesn't work for mp3 files, which have
that information to as can be seen in the explorer in the detail view. Is
there a possibility to access the information from C#?
Thanks for your help

Hi,
This is getting closer. Anyway it uses the file structure of the MP3 file so
I can't use for a more general solution to display and edit the properties
if any file I know or I don't such as the Windows Explorer does. I wonder if
the properties are stored and can be accessed in a more structured way.
Regards
-- David
