[RESOLVED] How to get Date Modified from a file on my server (RESOLVED)

I have files that are accessible via URL. Is there a simple way to retrieve the date modified property? I have to iterate through 100's if not a few thousand files during this process so I need a fairly speedy solution.

Any ideas would be awesome!

I am trying to us the FileSystemObject and then the FileDateTime

vb Code:

Set MyFile = fsObj.GetFile("http://www.mywebsite.com/myfolder/myimage.jpg")

i don't believe there is any way to do this with the file system object

you can try with inet control

Thanks Westconn1. I will try that tomorrow. :)

The FSO isn't going to do it.

Unless the server sends a Last Modified header the INet control won't work either.

Then you're limited to using either WebDAV or FTP to do an attributes request, assuming the server supports one of these.

I just simply cheated...stored the values in my DB on upload...they may be a few seconds off from correct but good enough...

Should save on possible time zone corrections then too.

Good point dilettante. The server always stores this value in Eastern Standard Time. I will have to look into how I will save this in the local DB.
