Dennis you're brilliant! It does return the file date and probably file time but you need to change the declare to test it. Type OFSTRUCT cBytes As String * 1 fFixedDisk As String * 1 nErrCode As Integer r1 As Integer r2 As Integer szPathName As String * 128 End Type Sub TestMe() Dim a As OFSTRUCT x% = OpenFile(SomeExistingFile$, a, of_exist) 'Supply filename FileMonth% = ((a.r1 And &H7FFF) \ 32) And &HF FileDay% = a.r1 And &H1F FileYear% = (a.r1 And &H7FFF) \ 512 + 80 End Sub r2 probably returns the time. Now, who said VB couldn't fancy things? <g> Costas P.S. Nelson if you're reading this – this should go into VBTIPS There is 1 Reply.
