File managing in VB

[davideart]

Hy, I'm developing a VB procedure to manage files. I use the filesystemobject with the statement
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot
I would need to be able to find what file is the latest created in a certain folder (of course without scanning the whole folder and comparing the DateCreated property of each file).

Thank you for your help

The procedure I submitted in thread222-66274 can easily be modified to check the Creation date of a file.

The procedure outlines how to scan folders for files. Once the files are found you can check ther Creation date through the DateCreated property of the file. BTW, You also have a DateLastAccessed and a DateLastModified Property. _________________________________

"(of course without scanning the whole folder and comparing the DateCreated property of each file)."

You just take the WITHOUT and change it to WITH and you have your answer. If you want them sorted, you'll have to do that too.
