Hi! Bob,

That's what I figured also... oh, I viewed it as a fascinating 'feature'.  ;-)

My fault!  It's the file creation date/time of the copied file.[snort] 
Don't panic.  :)

I'll hunt it down.  Thanks.

No great interest here, but maybe I can help test it for you... a DOS 7.1

 BS> Thanks for your help.

Any time.  I seem to have a knack for breaking things.

Cheers,
