Visual Basic, mod created, modified time/date attribs on files?

mod created, modified time/date attribs on files?

Author	Message
Marc A. Nowel #1 / 5	mod created, modified time/date attribs on files? Does anybody know if it's possible to modify the "Created" or "Modified" date/time attributes on files using Visual Basic? I need to write a utility to correct time-zone shifts (+/- 1,2 hours) on directories full of files. I've done some VB (couple years back) and am still fairly comfortable in it, but have never tried this.... Any pointers would be appreciated! Thanks!

Brian Shafe #2 / 5	mod created, modified time/date attribs on files? Yes, it is possible. I can't remember the code and don't have my book here. But I think the name of the book is Visual Basic Developers Handbook. One of the authors is Ken Getz.

Its on page 28 and is part of an article headed "Override Built-In keywords. This process takes a bit of explaining so you need to do a bit of reseach.
