» Ironpaw - Can this be used to change user details on existing files?

I see the script outputs a list of keys. Some of which are:
Keys: Creator - 1297307460
Keys: ID -
Keys: Information -

I have a list of docs I want to change the author, company and keywords for. My perl is a little basic but I am ok and manipulating exisiting code and getting there for the rest.

In response to message posted by Ironpaw:

Quite interesting that when I recorded a macro and tried changing these fields, nothing came out of the macro. Likewise, I can't find any property in the document object that fits these fields.

Guess this is one of the things that is not programmable in VBA (thus also in Perl OLE).

Sorry about that.
