When I look at a file, I need to know about the file other than the info returned by dir, i.e. size, update date and update time.  



I need the extended directory information that you would see using a properties function.  



In particular I need to know the date and time when it was created on the volume.



When I looked thru the functions available, I did not see one that looked like it would work.



Does any one have something I can use to get this information?



Thank you very much for your help.





Dana

<QUOTE>Dana,



Check out the DIR function. It is exactly what you want.

I suspect you'll need to use Windows API functions to get this information if the dir() command doesn't provide enough information for you.
