RE: Nope!, Never had that problem .......................

They sure are screwed up, no argument there.

Powershell (see below) plus SQL Server could do the job. Maybe I will give it a try. Have to work on the data model first. I am surprised I am the only one to have this problem/need.

p.s. I always got a kick out of colleagues who called themselves software engineers. I spent 20+ years as a programer (now retired). But engineering is based on mathematics and physics. We have a long way to go
in th software industry before we have a right to call ourselves engineers IMHO. There hasn't yet been a software program written that can be proved mathematically to be correct.

Anyway, as expected, powershell can do the job. No question it can read file metadata and record into database...
