Robocopy with the /B-Switch should work.

What "move/copy" tools can be used to copy directories/files to another location and still retain the "creation date" value? Robocopy seems to keep creation date on files but directories are given the current date. Am I missing a switch in Robocopy to do this? A backup/restore operation (with ntbackup.exe) retains the "creation date" as one would expect. I am just looking for other possible tools. I should mention that with all of the tools I've tried, the "modified date" is always the current date for directories. Any help is appreciated! Mike Thommes
