Returns the modification date and time for specified file on the
server.
Syntax
object.GetFileTime( RemoteFile,
FileDate )
Parameters
- RemoteFile
- A string that specifies the name of the file on the server. The
filename cannot contain any wildcard characters and must follow the
naming conventions of the operating system the server is hosted
on.
- FileDate
- A variable that will be set to the date and time that the file
was last modified. The variable's data type may either be a
Variant, String or Date.
Return Value
A value of zero is returned if the operation was successful,
otherwise a non-zero error code is returned which indicates the cause
of the failure.
Remarks
The GetFileTime method uses the MTDM command to determine
the modification time for the file. If the server does not support this
command, the function will attempt to use the STAT command to determine
the file modification time. You can use the Features property to
determine what features are available and/or enabled on the
server.
The Localize property will determine if the returned file
time is adjusted for the local timezone.
Example
The following example demonstrates how to retrieve the size a file
on the server:
Dim dateFileTime As Date
nError = FileTransfer1.GetFileTime(strFileName, dateFileTime)
If nError > 0 Then
MsgBox FileTransfer1.LastErrorString, vbExclamation
Exit Sub
End If
MsgBox strFileName & " was modified on " & dateFileTime
