I am looking to populate excel file metadata in SharePoint 365 from specific cells within the excel file. I am able to create the linked Advanced Properties within the file, import it into SharePoint, and auto populate the values on the initial load. The problem is, when users update the information in the linked cell it shows in the Properties setup window, but not in the Advanced Properties dropdown. It seems like this is only ever updated once and I can't seem to get it to refresh.

Utilizing VBA I was able to view these properties and could see that they were stored correctly, but it was not updating the Advanced Properties dropdown.

VBA used to check:
rw = 1 Worksheets(1).Activate For Each p In ActiveWorkbook.CustomDocumentProperties Cells(rw, 1).Value = p.Name Cells(rw, 2).Value = p.Value rw = rw + 1 Next
