Hi,
We have a document library where we have created some custom meta data columns.
We uploaded two files of .DOC and .DOCX file types and add meta data to them.
When we upload the same .DOC file again the metadata of the old file is still persistant.
If I upload the same .DOCX file again the metadata associated with the old .DOCX file is lost.
I came across an article, http://bfgagliolo.wordpress.com/2011/12/12/sharepoint-2010-using-multi-file-upload-lost-metadata-on-office-2010-documents/, which suggested us to disable document parser, which is not a recommended approach.
Does Microsoft has fix for this issue or is there a better alternate solution?
Thanks,
