Where does one find such an applet? Searches on Tucows, ZDnet and general
searches with MSN and Google didn't turn up any slap or touch that affected
file dates. Slap and Touch did get a few interesting hits not related to
computers <grin>
I did see that touch is available on an NT4 box as a Posix command but on my
box, not enough info was found at the help command to let me figure out how
to use it.
Can you post a link to these or others?
Thanks

Just curious... Is there a utility available to adjust the creation date of
a file. One of our SPC applications looks for a file with a specific date
on it before it runs in the "full" mode instead of "Evaluation" mode.
However, the contents of the file needs to change but when I change it, it
runs the way I want it to but reverts back to an eval copy. So... I need
to edit the file and then change it's date back to the original date.
