Hello.

I have several hundred digital photos that have
information in the 'Summary' part of the file properties
window. Is there a way to get this information into
Access along with the photo? As it is, I will have to
enter all of the details by hand. It is an inventory type
project, and the filename of each photo is it's unique
identifier.

Thanks!

Rob
 
Rob, is this a project you're just starting and really want to develop
yourself? If so, may I suggest you look into an outstanding product called
ThumbsPlus from cerious.com. ThumbsPlus is an image database developed in
Access which allows you to do just about *anything* you could possibly ask
related to image management, including captions, notes, digital camera data,
user-defined fields, etc. I've been using it for years, and love it. It can
probably import what you're asking for.
