Isn't the Last Author set when the file is saved? That would simply undo your change...

Yes it looks like. Do you know how I can get rid of "Last author" property ?

Hello,

I'm trying to remove Word metadata using OLE. I can remove Author but I can't remove "Last author". I use following code:

  vEditor:= CreateOleObject('Word.Application');
  vEditor.Visible:=True;
  vDoc:= vEditor.Documents.Open('sample.docx');
  vDoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties.Item['Author']):= '';//It works!
  vDoc.BuiltInDocumentProperties.Item['Last Author']):= '';//It doesn't work
  vDoc.Save;
  vDoc.Close;
  vEditor.Quit;

I hope you have some experience with such a task and you can help me.

If there is other solution than using OLE please also give me an info.
