>>Does anyone know how to explicitly set a files time date stamp from vfp6. I think there used to be a foxtools function called ftouch that did this but it seems to be gone now. If your solution includes using the win32ap setfiletime function plese let me know how to convert from a foxpro datetime to the wierd format that function uses.

Thanks for the help it worked fine after I figured out how to translate the offset from the registry.
