I am trying various ways of capturing windows metadata from office documents. The issue I have come upon is the File Creation date changes when you copy it in to an Import Agent monitored folder (obviously, this is as designed by windows).

I have noticed that there is a metadata value called "Content Created". This date seems to correspond with the original creation date and does not change when copied. However, I cannot find if it can be captured via Import Agent. I'm hoping that it can be captured and that the token is just not published in the GUI (like some of the other metadata tokens).

Also, if I drag and drop an office document in to the Windows Client, the Creation Date is captured but the other metadata is not (author, title etc. )

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
