On Windows XP Pro sp3 PC with MS Access 2003 &/or 2007

- Windows XP Explorer will not display the "duration" of mp4 video files
- But it does for AVI - and probably wmv

We have to be able to get the "duration" of mp4 video files
... into an Access data field... hopefully using VBA.

Can anyone help with this?
Hopefully with a demo code sample.

Thanks for any help.

PS - Win 7 Explorer does show "duration or "length" for mp4 video files but we need to find out how to make it work on XP machines.
