Manipulating the files directly vs. changing their propertie

I will try and see how far I can come manipulating the files directly, namely excel, and see where that may bring me. For non excel files though I still haven't gotten a clear idea of how to manipulate their custom properties directly. I will investigate further...

Change document properties, embedded feature.

As I sometimes have a template document get values from the document's properties (revision level, material, colour etc.) it would be nice to be able to manipulate these directly from Macro Scheduler.

Finally, something works, but not all...

OK, i was posting too quick last time, I actually could get it to work with SelectMenu>, but only some of the menu points, the save as was a definitely no-go. Why is that?

Selectmenu not working properly?

Hi all,

I cannot seem to get the SelectMenu> command to work, not even with notepad as in the example given.
Anyone who can confirm this, or tell me what I am doing wrong.
Examples are welcome.
