Julius,
If you have access to back issues of the now-defunct Transactor for the
Amiga, I had an article in Volume 1, Issue #2 that contained a file-copy
utility written in Assembler, that contains code to set the Datestamp of a
file. I'll try to find the code and upload it here, as it does provide
some good example code (although the program itself is a little out-dated).
You may want to send me a reminder if it doesn't show up in a little bit.
Hope this helps….

Bob, thanks for the pointer. Happily I have (borrowed) the complete Amiga
Transactor set. I also managed to find an example by Andy Finkel in C.
However it didn't work for files in sub-directories…until I read in your
article: "Note: …MUST NOT include any path info…"
Should have it working 100% shortly…
