Default 'Last Accessed Date' in the properties

Is there a way to change the setting so that the 'last accessed date' doesn't
change in the properties setting? Here's my dilemma: When I 'compress' a
Word Document and then view the document without 'uncompressing' it, the meta
data doesn't change. The last modified date, last changed and last accessed
date are still intact. But when I 'compress' an Excel file and I view the
file from within the compressed file - not the actual document - the 'last
accessed date' changes.

I work with a legal group and because of ediscovery rules, we need a way to
view documents and perform keyword searches without the 'last accessed' date
being changed...again, Word doesn't do this, only Excel.

Thanks!
