Similar to a post or two previously , just a bit more complicated, the full text in a cell may have these sort of forms, (4 cell examples are shown)

Address.Country -- PKEY_Address_Country
//  Type:     String -- VT_LPWSTR  (For variants: VT_BSTR)
//  FormatID: {C07B4199-E1DF-4493-B1E1-DE5946FB58F8}, 100
DEFINE_PROPERTYKEY(PKEY_Address_Country, 0xC07B4199, 0xE1DF, 0x4493, 0xB1, 0xE1, 0xDE, 0x59, 0x46, 0xFB, 0x58, 0xF8, 100);

Audio.Compression -- PKEY_Audio_Compression
//  Type:     String -- VT_LPWSTR  (For variants: VT_BSTR)
//  FormatID: (FMTID_AudioSummaryInformation) {64440490-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}, 10 (PIDASI_COMPRESSION)
//

DEFINE_PROPERTYKEY(PKEY_Audio_Compression, 0x64440490, 0x4C8B, 0x11D1, 0x8B, 0x70, 0x08, 0x00, 0x36, 0xB1, 0x1A, 0x03, 10);

IsSendToTarget -- PKEY_IsSendToTarget
//  Type:     Boolean -- VT_BOOL
//  FormatID: (FMTID_ShellDetails) {28636AA6-953D-11D2-B5D6-00C04FD918D0}, 33
//
//  Provided by certain shell folders. Return TRUE if the folder is a valid Send To target.
DEFINE_PROPERTYKEY(PKEY_IsSendToTarget, 0x28636AA6, 0x953D, 0x11D2, 0xB5, 0xD6, 0x00, 0xC0, 0x4F, 0xD9, 0x18, 0xD0, 33);

TitleSortOverride -- PKEY_TitleSortOverride
//  Type:     String -- VT_LPWSTR  (For variants: VT_BSTR)  Legacy code may treat this as VT_LPSTR.
//  FormatID: {F0F7984D-222E-4AD2-82AB-1DD8EA40E57E}, 300 (PIDSI_TITLE_SORT_OVERRIDE)
//  
//  This optional string value allows for overriding the standard sort order of System.Title.
//  This is very important for proper sorting of music files in Japanese which cannot be
//  correctly sorted phonetically (the user-expected ordering) without this field.
//  It can also be used for customizing sorting in non-East Asian scenarios,
//  such as allowing the user to remove articles for sorting purposes.
DEFINE_PROPERTYKEY(PKEY_TitleSortOverride, 0xF0F7984D, 0x222E, 0x4AD2, 0x82, 0xAB, 0x1D, 0xD8, 0xEA, 0x40, 0xE5, 0x7E, 300);
#define INIT_PKEY_TitleSortOverride { { 0xF0F7984D, 0x222E, 0x4AD2, 0x82, 0xAB, 0x1D, 0xD8, 0xEA, 0x40, 0xE5, 0x7E }, 300 }

The conclusion from examination of those text parts, is that there are no surprises such as strange "invisible coding". The line separator is the typical pair, vbCr & vbLf
So we can simply look at these 4 lines, when thinking of how to get at the SCIDS, (and the second one I show again the whole cell of it, just to remind of how the full strings containing the lines of interest look like)

 FormatID: {C07B4199-E1DF-4493-B1E1-DE5946FB58F8}, 100
FormatID: (FMTID_AudioSummaryInformation) {64440490-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}, 10 (PIDASI_COMPRESSION)
FormatID: (FMTID_ShellDetails) {28636AA6-953D-11D2-B5D6-00C04FD918D0}, 33
FormatID: {F0F7984D-222E-4AD2-82AB-1DD8EA40E57E}, 300 (PIDSI_TITLE_SORT_OVERRIDE) 

Audio.Compression -- PKEY_Audio_Compression
//  Type:     String -- VT_LPWSTR  (For variants: VT_BSTR)
//  FormatID: (FMTID_AudioSummaryInformation) {64440490-4C8B-11D1-8B70-080036B11A03}, 10 (PIDASI_COMPRESSION)
//
//  
DEFINE_PROPERTYKEY(PKEY_Audio_Compression, 0x64440490, 0x4C8B, 0x11D1, 0x8B, 0x70, 0x08, 0x00, 0x36, 0xB1, 0x1A, 0x03, 10);
#define INIT_PKEY_Audio_Compression { { 0x64440490, 0x4C8B, 0x11D1, 0x8B, 0x70, 0x08, 0x00, 0x36, 0xB1, 0x1A, 0x03 }, 10 }

So we will check that out in the next post
