Title:
Determine Creation date of a directory
Hi George,
Last time (29/04/2002 08:41:15) you gave me a great tip by downloading your Winfiles class to determine the creation date and time of a direcory.
It is very usefull to me.
But I have one problem with it.
I want to determine the creation date for a direcory on a network drive.
When I use your class to determine it on a workstation that is connected to the network, I get the following datetime : "11/06/2002 10:13:54 AM".
When I use it on another workstation for the same direcory I get : "11/06/2002 11:13:54 AM".
There is a difference of 1 hour.
I have searched for differences between the two workstations and discovered that one of the 2 workstations has the option
'Automatically adjust clock for daylight saving changes' turned on.
When I synchonize these settings on both workstations and I use your class again to determine the creation date and time they both give me the same date and time.
I have 2 questions that maybe you can answer.
1) Do you know which (other) options like the one I mentioned above result in a different datetime using your class ?
2) Do you know any solution / workaroud for this problem.
With regards,
Jacques Herweijer
