File System Object - last modified

[siris]

I'm using the following code to find out whether a file exists or not

Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot

If objFSO.FileExists(someFile) Then
response.write("File Exists&quot
End If

But after that I want to know when was it last modified. But is there any inbuilt function which will tell me that. Somebody told me that it's 'DateLastModified'. So I used objFSO.DateLastModified(someFile) to get the date. But it's not working. Is it the properway to use it or is there some other way.

Thanks.

siris,

datelastmodified is under the File object

so it would look like this:

(date of some sort)= file.datelastmodified

aaron

So aaron, how can I set the file object. Can I say

someFile.dateLastModified because someFile is just a variable. Or how can I change that to a real file??

Hope this gives u an idea...

function ShowFileAccessInfo(filespec)
{
var fso, f, s;
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
f = fso.GetFile(filespec);//this is the important line
then u could get what u need from the file
s = filespec.toUpperCase() + &quot;<br>&quot;;
s += &quot;Created: &quot; + f.DateCreated + &quot;<br>&quot;;
s += &quot;Last Accessed: &quot; + f.DateLastAccessed + &quot;<br>&quot;;
s += &quot;Last Modified: &quot; + f.DateLastModified;
return(s);
}
[VBScript]
Function ShowFileAccessInfo(filespec)
Dim fso, f, s
Set fso = CreateObject(&quot;Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot
Set f = fso.GetFile(filespec)
s = UCase(filespec) & &quot;<BR>&quot;
s = s & &quot;Created: &quot; & f.DateCreated & &quot;<BR>&quot;
s = s & &quot;Last Accessed: &quot; & f.DateLastAccessed & &quot;<BR>&quot;
s = s & &quot;Last Modified: &quot; & f.DateLastModified
ShowFileAccessInfo = s
End Function
