Reading/importing data written in Explorer

Post by ptrickf »

Hi all

Apologies if this has been asked before (I have searched the forums). We have a number of images from different sources with data written in the summary section under properties in Windows explorer (mainly who took it and where).

Is it possible to read this data in XnView or at least import it from explorer? So far I have looked every where I can think of, e.g. under properties and IPTC data but to no avail. :?:

Any ideas would be much apreciated.

Many thanks.

Currently it's not possible. But perhaps it would be a good idea to import them. But don't know yet how to do...
