Open any one of these excel files (with excel, of course)
Then Click of (the menu) File, Properties... Select the Summary Tab
There you will see the official data - clear boxes if you wish..

When I hover the mouse over some Excel files (in Explorer) I see summary
information about the file including a title (which I have never included)
and which I have now deleted.

Any idea how this information is creeping in?

Thanks.
