You can use the API or Scripting.FileSystemObject COM Object's File Object properties to determine creation, last modification, and last reference times; you can't count on the order of occurance in the folder to indicate age, since in FAT there is reuse of deleted file entries, and in NTFS, the content of the folder index is hashed.

How far away is file/folder case sensitivity (like unix)?
