You can create tiny functions (UDFs) to get you the information. For example:
Function author()
author = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties(3)
End Function
So in a worksheet
=author()
will display the author's name.
User Defined Functions (UDFs) are very easy to install and use:
1. ALT-F11 brings up the VBE window
2. ALT-I
ALT-M opens a fresh module
3. paste the UDF in and close the VBE window
If you save the workbook, the UDF will be saved with it.
To remove the UDF:
1. bring up the VBE window as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window
To learn more about UDFs and macros in general, see:
