Ah, but I don't do that anymore... I am retired & I just diddle (some say meddle) for my own use and for friends and family. Some of my OT and SOT posts are out there, I know. But, it is a way to present ideas, gauge interest, and maybe give something back to a community that has been a great assist to me, personally. > Now, to be perfectly honest, I hadn't read through the whole thread > when I > got to your post, so I don't know if Verity would let you access IPTC > metadata.

I imagine it is quite different, today. If you were indexing HTML pages, you would need to recreate the entire collection. I suppose you could have written a program these pages individually, extract the relevant data, and update the appropriate index... don't think that would have been practical, at the time.
