File attributes [RESOLVED]

How do you get & set the a file's attributes? Namely I'm interested in the read-only property, for I've been trying to change the file's time stamp but it failed as the file was read-only and I previously had to change this manually.

VB Code:

SetAttr "C:\Test.txt", vbReadOnly

To take the read only off:

VB Code:

SetAttr "C:\Test.txt", vbNormal

Thanks! Is it possible to check the attribute too? Just to avoid unnecessarily setting it to normal when it is already so.

Well, I've just run into the instruction "GetAttr". Forget my previous post.
