I want to read the properties of a MS Word document (the title). I use the function 
builtInDocumentProperties, but it returns a IDispatch Interface and I don't know 
how to get the value. If I write Document.BuiltInProperties[wdPropertyTitle].Value, 
I get an error.

Answer:

Variants are the easiest way of dealing with these properties.

1   { ... }
2   var
3     Doc: OleVariant;
4     { ... }
5     Doc := Word.ActiveDocument;
6     Doc.BuiltInDocumentProperties['Title'].Value := 'The title';
7     Doc.BuiltInDocumentProperties['Category'].Value := 'Category';
8     { ... }
