I notice that digital cameras embed some information (ie camera model, date, time etc) in the graphic file. Does anybody know how to retrieve the information in VB?

There is no universal place for storing meta data. Each file type stores meta data in different places. What I would do is go to the following site and look up the file format you are trying to read data from and write functions to read the data from each of the specific file formats you are wanting to read.
Wotsit's File Formats
I would also get a Hex editor so that you can look at the binary data of the files too, which should make it easier for you to code.
