Property Value

Type: System.Object

Remarks

This property returns the entire collection of built-in document properties. Use the Item method to return a single member of the collection (a DocumentProperty object) by specifying either the name of the property or the collection index (as a number).

You can refer to document properties either by index value or by name. The following list shows the available built-in document property names:

Container applications aren’t required to define values for every built-in document property. If Microsoft Excel doesn’t define a value for one of the built-in document properties, reading the Value property for that document property causes an error.

The Item method is the default method for the DocumentProperties collection.

Use the CustomDocumentProperties property to return the collection of custom document properties.
