Hi again.

I have managed to get the list of MDImporters using the NSTask
funstion and calling the mdimport with the switches but this is
relying on another function. Is it possible to to this via COCOA
directly.

No. There is no public API for doing this. If you have a reason for needing to do this, you should probably file a bug report at <http://bugreport.apple.com>

Also is it possible to get a list of what extensions each
importer is responsible for?

You could, I suppose, examine the bundles reported by mdimport -L and what they declare in their Info.plist; however I'm not sure what would happen in the case of two bundles declaring the same UTI.
