Customizing File Properties in XP
Posted by Jackie D on January 17th, 2006


Hi

Sorry if this is a basic question but does anyone know how I can customize
the file properties of a Word 2003 document when I hover my mouse cursor over
the file in windows explorer?

When I hover over the file I get the author name, file size, date modified,
subject and title. I'd like to add date created to that list.

Many thanks

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*
QuickTip (tooltip network files)
InfoTip (tooltip local files)
TileInfo (tile view, shown if room)

Write is Date Mod but should already be there (this is for all files).

if you use the "List" view in Explorer it will show you the date created
and date last modified as standard.
