Is there a way to access/change the custom properties (that can be viewed by right-clicking the file in windows explorer) without acutally opening it using VB.net?

Hi.
I would like to know how can I modify a lot of properties of many solidworks parts and assemblies without open the solidworks files.
I sad dsofile.dll but this application change properties one by one file.
Thanks.
Take a look at the SolidWorks Task Scheduler to assign the same Custom Property value to multiple files.
Take a look at SolidWorks Explorer to add/change Custom Properties on multiple files, one at a time.

Thanks all.
Task scheduler assign the same propriety value to many files. It's useful, but I would like to do like this:
create a file .csv from excel with all properties to create/change and a .exe file to make it.
Here's an example:
.csv file:
filename;Mass;Material;PartNumber;Invoice;Description;Date
test.sldprt;"SW-Mass";"SW-Material";010256;552585;Plate 3/8"x1250x2500;10/04/2010
test2.sldprt;"SW-Mass";"SW-Material";010269;552532;Hex head cap screw M8x50;10/02/2010
A .exe file will find the specified solidworks files in your directory and sub-directories and apply these properties to custom tab.
Hi, sorry for my delay.
yes, I would like to change the properties of sw files.
I found this excel file in http://www.markkulehtola.net/wb/pages/solidworks/swxx-tools/older-stuff/swie.php
Thanks Markku. Great job.
Thanks for all.
Ben,
Yes, if you RC on any part or assembly file in windows explorer hit properties then select the custom tab.
and you can view and edit the properties.
