>>I installed (attached) SQL Server database to the customer SQL server last year (in December). I know they use the application (VFP9) and have added tons of records to various tables since then. Yet when I go the Command Prompt where I placed the .MDF and .LDF files, the date stamp on them is still December 2012. How could it be?

I won't try to copy the files (don't want to mess with them). I will ask the DBA for the explanation. Thank you.
