how to date from files
like SYSTEM.DATA, SYSTEM,DA0 and BOOTLOG.TXT in vb6

[Guido Geurs]

This will show the date from a file selected in a filelistbox:

Private Sub Dir1_Change()
    File1.Path = Dir1.Path
End Sub

Private Sub Drive1_Change()
    Dir1.Path = Drive1.Drive
End Sub

Private Sub File1_Click()
    MsgBox FileDateTime(File1.FileName)
End Sub

it is good sir, but how can i find above mentioned files in my system and get their dates. please tell me the location of these files

Sorry but I'm working on a PC with XP SP3 and these files are not found on my system !
Can you do a search ?
Attached is a demo of the code.
Just click in the file window on the file and a messagebox will show you the creation date and time.
