Even with these problems, it's still useful if you want to use it only for reading OLE document properties or file metadata. If anyone finds fixes to the two problems above, please let me know so I can update this code. This code also includes my fix for the "access denied" error when accessing empty summary properties.

One warning for those of you thinking of using file metadata for code you put on customer sites: you *cannot* just zip up the files because zip doesn't know that there is weird NTFS metadata associated with the file. You have to use a Windows share to copy the files w/ metadata.

Pete: yes, since the DLL is written in C++, it has to be rebuilt for Windows 64-bit. I fixed the link in case you want to download it.
