    Object property values from within object?

    Need to clear OS Disk Cache?

    Ok...that doesn't answer why we're getting this peculiar result with the system, but using SetFileTime should let us get around the problem we are having. Don't know how we missed that (I looked...really I did...). Thank you. Hopefully, this thread is dead.

    Formatting time milliseconds and nanoseconds
