Modify File Properties

I am looking for code to modify the properties of a large number of files. I
know I can do it manually by going to the file properties and the summary
tab, but with the large number of files I am dealing with I would like to
modify them with code. Anybody got any ideas??

For example: I have a large number of snapshot files (.snp) in which I need
to change the file properties for the Title, Subject, Author, Category and
Keywords.
 
Hi Craig,

Many properties of Office files can be modified by calling functions in
the library dsofile.dll. I don't know whether this includes .snp files.

This article http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=224351 includes a link
to download the file and should get you started; there's other
information on the Web.
 
Thank you for your response. Sadly, this does not work for .snp files. Or
if it does I can't seem to get it to work. If someone could show me how to
get it to work with .snp files, that would be great. Any other ideas as
welcome?
Note: I am using Access 2000 to try to make this work.
