Changing the author in the file properties

Post by thefreecat »

Is there a way to change the author in the file properties ? One client asked me why all his documents were "authored" by Josef Stalin and was not pleased at all. I downloaded latest version and I hope this is corrected but I'd like to put my clients' name in there.
Thank you,

Hello

Sorry for uncle Joe. He can never keep his dirty fingers away... The Author field is blank now. You can set it with the Username property: XLS.UserName := 'Uncle Joe';

But now (5.10.22) in file properties parameter meaning document creation date is 2000.01.01 15:00 ;( windows explorer shows this time (from parameters) as filedate.

and also statements like
XLS.UserName := 'test user';
XLS.Password := '111';
not makes any effect on resulting file ;(
