Hi Bob,
I need something like this -- the "Last Modified By" or "Last Author" value
-- but for a given file in a folder without opening it in Excel, and
regardless of what kind of file it is. The FileSystemObject doesn't seem to
support this, crazy as it seems. I've checked the properties of the File
object in Excel VBA Help and it doesn't seem to have anything that matches
this. I've bound the MS Scripting Runtime reference and tried:
LastModBy = FileItem.LastModified
LastModBy = FileItem.LastModifiedBy
LastModBy = FileItem.ModifiedBy
LastModBy = FileItem.Modified
LastModBy = FileItem.LastAuthor
LastModBy = FileItem.Author
All of them fail as soon as I try to step through.
