What is the best way to preserve file modification date/time when copied to a Windows 2000 server?
Hi James,
The detailed version of the files function returns, among other things, the modification dates for each file in the defaultFolder. So one needs to:
A. Save the defaultFolder if it needs restoration B Set the defaultFolder to the folder containing the file C. Get the detailed files D. Parse the list to find the line for the file* E. Get the date as item 5 of that line F. Restore original defaultFolder, if necessary
*Note in step D that the file's name is returned URL-encoded.
Now you have the modification date. How you get the Windows server to retain or reset that date is beyond my scope of experience.
