search on CPAN for MSWORD, there must be a module for parsing MSWord documents.

http://search.cpan.org/

I would look but I can;t get connected to CPAN right now.

Hi guys,

This is an interesting topic for me too.

> search on CPAN for MSWORD, there must be a module for parsing
> MSWord documents.

Yes, there are some interesting tools for converting Word documents to text and they will come in handy.

For a project of mine, I would like to read out just the properties of MSWORD documents. I have googled on key words but it is often unclear whether to tools that are available handle MS-WORD document properties or just the properties of their/other documents.

Does anyone out there have a recommendation of a tool for reading out just the properties of MS-WORD documents?

Any tips would be a great help.

Regards,
Alan.
