Not Pulling Text Strings (XPAuthor, XP Keywords)

[jlsneedus]

The script runs successfully without error, however I noticed something peculiar when it is attempting to extract ASCII text strings from XP Keywords and XP comments fields. It reveals a null value when it is clear that there is a value in that specific field. I went to edit the "keywords' field by adding a single character to the existing values, then the process is able to extract it. It seems that it is only able to retrieve this value if I edit the original contents. My first assumption is that execution policy many need to be changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
