DSOFILE.DLL - not with XML

Don
Hi,

Anyone have any quick ideas as to why we can write extended file
properties with dsofile.dll to all sorts of file formats - but not
XML?

Even in Word 2003, when I save as DOC extended file properties appear,
but save as XML - they don't.

Is this a Windows issue or a restriction in the DLL?

TIA

Don

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
