You'll get that error if the workbook has never been saved.

I have some code that reads in the last save data of an excel file using

MD = wb.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Last Save Time")


I came across a group of excel files that I tried running these on and got
the following error:

System Error &H80004005 (-2147467259). Unspecified error

What could cause this? Shouldn't every excel file have a Last Saved Time?
