I'm trying to write a python script to extract some properties from a set
of Word documents. The attributes I'm interested in are things like author's
name, last print date, keywords, etc.
This is what I have so far:
from win32com.client import constants,Dispatch
import string,os
app = Dispatch('Word.Application.8')
app.Documents.Open(r"C:\My Documents\myMemo.doc")
doc = app.ActiveDocument
print "Last printed date: ", # ?? what goes here ??
I tried using combrowse.py to figure out what the properties of the doc are,
but I couldn't find anything that looked relevant.
Is there any web-based info on COM interfaces to various programs? Or do you
have to buy Visual Basic books and translate for yourself?
Thanks for the help!
