I want to Find the date a text file was created

[Steve Thomas]

I want to find the date a file was created on the users hard drive. I can find it by using API's but it returns the time in UTC. Anyone know how to either convert UTC time or an API that will get the time in a format I can read?

You can find the Creation/Last Modification Date/Time using the VB Function FileDateTime(), eg.

Caption = FileDateTime("C:\MyFile.txt")

Thanks. I don't know why I thought I had to use an API. I guess you get going in one direction and can not shift gears.
