This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
Greg,

These properies cannot be accessed by API. You will need to use DSOfile.dll component. It can be downloaded from http://download.microsoft.com/download/office97dev/Utility/2/WIN98/EN-US/Dsofile.exe
See details in MSKB #Q224351.

>When you right click on a file in Windows Explorer and select properties, one of the tabs that comes up is "Summary." From that tab, you can enter such things as file title, comments, keywords etc.
>
>I am looking for a way to access these properties from Fox. I looked at the API calls on news2news.com, and there are two API calls for determine file attributes, but these return the readonly/archive etc attribute, not the properties.
>
>Does anyone know of such an API call, or perhaps some other way to access such properties?

>Thanks,
>
