I don't see any Title or Subject data in my image files, but perhaps you meant the other extended image meta data, camera information etc? This is called EXIF, I found a working VB.Net class for this here: CodeProject: The ExifWorks class

That information is a Microsoft Office feature, not a feature of the image. There are examples of reading Office file properties about.

Thank you for the reply and link.

Let's say you have a *.jpg...
Right-Click on the file and go to properties. In the Properties window, go to the summary tab. That is where the fields are that I would like to minipulate. Is this the EXIF that you were referring to?

Thanks again!
