Word Documents

Question

I have to get the last updated date of many many word documents. These documents are decoded from attachments in email (not read from a disk file). I am using CDO and ADO to read in *.eml files using 'getstream' on the IBodyParts. This allows be to get a stream (decoded) of the word document. I must get the date here because if I write it to disk then use the Word objects to read in the document the dates reflect the date and time of this last save. Any help would be appreciated.

It looks like once you have a Document object there is a Versions field that contains saved by saved date etc. I can't tell if you have to explicitly turn on versioning or if you can consider the current document the current version. You'll have to experiment.
