In the old days....i'm dating myself here ;) in dos when you used xcopy and yes even pkzip you could switch the archive bit/flag on or off. It would allpw you to only back up files that had changed or were new. I am trying to implement that in order to create a zipfile of a website at creation and then only the changed or new new files on a nightly basis to cover my clients butts as my web templates allow them to upload files and create/modify content which then writes static html files. I figure these zips will be small and can be downloaded easily without taxing the resources of the server where they are hosted. I have the zip cfc creating the zips perfectly now in no time at all, but it is the whole kit and kaboodle each time which is why I need the archive bit to work.

It's not something I've needed to work with explicitly myself, but that's where I'd start looking.
