Hi,

I am trying to find a way to get and change file summary information. I
tried using FileInfo class, but it doesn't give me information such as
"Author,Title,Rating" etc. Is there a way to get and change these information
using .NET libraries?

Sample would be a great help...

Thanks
Hiten

Not without writing your own IPropertyStorage com interop assembly.

You can adapt the code provided by Microsoft in this KB article for your
needs:

I tried the URL u provided about DsoFile from microsoft, the only thing is...
I am getting Access Denied error when i tries to change a property of .mp3
file, however, it works on microsoft documents such as excel, visio document
etc. Do you think the DsoFile library is for microsoft documents only?

Any other suggestion??

thanks,

The DsoFile Library was written specifically for Office Documents. You must
use the IPropertyStorage API to edit these properties. The code to use the
API is supplied. You can easily extend the code for non Office files.
