Description Robert Flaherty 2003-10-16 17:33:21 UTC 
When user-defined properties are added to a document, a second section exists 
for DocumentSummaryInformation.  This causes the specialized getXxx() calls 
which inturn call getProperty() to fail b/c it is wired to only work when one 
section exists.  Because they are known to be in the first section, 
DocumentSummaryInformation should override getProperty() or create a 
getFirstSectionProperty() to get them.  It may be worthwhile to put the same 
code in SummaryInformation in case a second section could ever be created (not 
sure?).
