File Modification Date/Time - grabbing and setting
: Why do you suppose Visual Basic 3.0 Pro does not provide reasonable means
: to read and write file modification date and time?
: It seems silly that there is not even a Win API call to do this from VB!
: Writing a dll to use:
: > _dos_open
: > _dos_setftime
: > _dosclose
: seems a little overboard to me.
: What do you think?
Yeah, I think this feature should have been included. Fortunately someone
has written a Freeware VBX that will do this and much more. It is called
VBIO.VBX and it can be found at sevearl sites.
