To Extract the More Info Information from Get Info

Dear AppleScripters,

Hello.  I know that you can easily get the file information on a file by assigning a variable to 'properties of file.'  The information you get with properties is what you see from Get Info (Press Command + I on a file.).  And you will see the same information under the General category.  Actually, the Info window contains more data.  If you see what you have under the More Info category, it should also have a line that says Last opened...  If the file extension is emix (Mail message), there may be additional lines including Content Created, Authors, Recipients under More Info.  If it's a QuickTime-readable audio file, there may be additional lines including Duration, Audio channels, Total bit rate under the More Info category.  I wonder if AppleScript lets you extract these pieces of information?

Thank you for your advice.

Jim
