vba code to find original file information?

[N_Mitch]

G'day,

Is there any code which can display the original file information? The type of information I need is as follows:

File location
Date
Excel version
Created by whom

Thank you,

Mitch

dont know about date and crated by whom but following code shows the file location and excel version

Sub ShowInfo()
MsgBox "File location: " & ThisWorkbook.Path & Chr(13) & _
"Version: " & Application.Version
End Sub

and this is the creation date:

Sub ShowInfo() 
MsgBox "File location: " & ThisWorkbook.Path & Chr(13) & _ 
"Version: " & Application.Version & chr(13) & _
"Creation Date: " & FileDateTime(ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & ThisWorkbook.Name)
End Sub

Thanks iggydarsa

However, what I want to know is the original file location where the file was created in. I'm not sure if this information is stored in a file or not.

In other words, even where a file has been copied, or SavedAs, to a new location, is there some vba code that can display the original file location?

Thanks,

Mitch

This code should give the info:

Sub ListStuff()
    Range("B3").Value = "Workbook Path"
    Range("B4").Value = "File Creation Date"
    Range("B5").Value = "Application Version"
    Range("B6").Value = "Created by:"
    
    Range("C3").Value = ActiveWorkbook.Path
    Range("C4").Value = ThisWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties(11).Value
    Range("C5").Value = Application.Version
    Range("C6").Value = ThisWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties(3).Value
End Sub

Original File Path would not be available.

Excellent!

That was just what I was after, John (although I would have really liked the orig file location as well!).

Thanks,
