Daniel,
I understand that but i want to get the info into a cell programatically not
just view from the file menu.

Add these to a general module in your workbook then run the macro
documentprops to get a list of the builtin properties and their values.

Adjust to suit.

Function DocProps(prop As String)
Application.Volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function

Sub documentprops()
'list of properties on a new sheet
rw = 1
Worksheets.Add
For Each p In ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties
Cells(rw, 1).Value = p.Name
Cells(rw, 4).Value = "=DocProps(" & "A" & rw & ")"
rw = rw + 1
Next
End Sub
