Thanks for the help... A friend told me about the FileTimeToSystemTime API call and I was wondering how the heck I was going to use that in FoxPro (I'm learning as I go, and I only started a few months ago).

If I just want the UTC stamp of when an existing file was modified, passing a datetime to UTC_TIME should work beautifully, correct? It's tacking 7 hours onto the modified date for my autoexec.bat, which I think is correct for Daylight Savings Time in CST...

(I'm not sure if it's -7 or -5 in DS... if anyone knows, drop me a little reply.)
