Since sending this email, we've discovered that the Date Created is being 
retained from source to destination.  The Date Modified is being updated to 
current date (on both source & destination).  Since the default in Windows is 
Date Modified, we'd rather this date wasn't changed during the move.

Thanks in advance.

Subject: [NTSysADM] Robocopy question

Hi all.

We are preparing to archive all files which haven't been accessed since Jan 
2011.  For now, we want to move to another location on the same drive.  We'd 
like to retain directory and file attributes, however the directories are being 
created at the destination with the current date rather than the date on their 
source - and the dates on the source directories (those containing files that 
are being moved) is being modified to current date.

Here's the command we are using:

robocopy "d:\users\tammy" d:\archive2013\tammy /mov /minlad:20110101 /dcopy:T 
/b /s /tee /log:d:\logs\users-tg.log

We've tested and googled but we're now out of ideas.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
- Tammy
