Excatly what I have just spent days doing. You need dsofile.exe from ms, win32, and it is actually pretty easy.

Node 215118 - I used this code and with a little help changed

$propertie­s->SetProp­erty('titl­e',$filename);
[download]

(which would not set properties but then your only asking about reading them) to

$properties->{'title'} = $filenam3;
[download]

(which works like a charm.

That should do ya. There is little info out there for this but that link will get you dsofile.exe and the script will bring it all together.
