BuiltInDocumentProperties Property
An accessor property which returns a Microsoft Office DocumentProperties collection of the specified document's built-in properties. Read-only Object.
expression.BuiltInDocumentProperties
*expression * Required. An expression that returns a Document object.
Remarks
Use BuiltInDocumentProperties and CustomDocumentProperties to return the properties of a document. The built-in properties list includes commonly used fields such as "Title," "Author," and "Creation Date." The custom document properties collection is empty by default.
The Document object does not use some of the available built-in document properties, such as "Last print date" and "Last save time." Requesting the Value of an unused document property causes a run-time error.
Example
The following example creates a new document from a file and displays its built-in properties and their values. To avoid run-time errors caused by unused properties, the example disables error handling while reading the properties list.
Sub TestBuiltInDocumentProperties()
Dim miDoc As MODI.Document
Dim p As Office.DocumentProperty
Dim strPropsInfo As String
Set miDoc = New MODI.Document
miDoc.Create "C:\document1.tif"
On Error Resume Next
For Each p In miDoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties
strPropsInfo = strPropsInfo & p.Name & _
": " & p.Value & vbCrLf
Next
On Error GoTo 0
MsgBox strPropsInfo, vbInformation + vbOKOnly, _
"Built-in Document Properties"
Set miDoc = Nothing
End Sub
