I have a threaded program that one thread is reading file stats and
another thread is comparing them. I have a need to modify the time
stamp on a file before I close it. If I close the file then change the
time stamp on the file I could wind up in a race condition that I can
not deal with. 


So the question is: Is is possible to create a new file, write into it, 
modify the time stamp giving it a older update time then close the file?

TIA
mike
