Function DocProps(prop As String)

On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocument*Properties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function

Hello Bob,
I have copied your function into a module and have written =DocProps ("last
author") as you said but Excel didn't recognize it.
Any thoughts on what I did wrong?
Actually I am puzzled at how the whole thing works in the first place( does
Excel recognize last author or something?)
Anyway sorry for the elementary questions:))

Ozgur,

A number of properties are stored with the file, this just gives access to
them.

I copied it from my post and tried it, and also got an error. Looking at the
code, I found a superfluous - in it (which doesn't show in my response!).

See if this version works okay now, it looks the same, but I removed the -
in the VBIDE

'-----------------------------------------------------------------

'-----------------------------------------------------------------

On Error GoTo err_value
DocProps = ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties _
(prop)
Exit Function
err_value:
DocProps = CVErr(xlErrValue)
End Function
