I'm looking for somebody who can write a script for Bridge that will allow me to export specific XMP Metadata fields to either a spreadsheet or XML document. I have 1,000's of files I need to retrieve the metadata for, I'd prefer a script that can do them all in a batch. Can anybody either help me, or direct me to somebody who can help me?

Look at the BarredRock script at the end of this thread, it will allow you to save the selected fields to a CSV file...

Thanks for that. is there anyway to get it to process multiple files in multiple folders and subfolders?

Sorry I can't answer that, the script was written a while ago and came from here..

It might be best to write one from scratch, but that  would mean knowing what fields were required and what file types.
