file attributes under Win32
Hi , is it possible to access file attributes in a Win32 environment via Perl. I am interested not only in getting the DOS attributes like creation and modified date, but also the stuff that can be found on the second tab folder of the Properties dialog: File Version, Description, Product Version, etc. Any ideas? Thanks in advance and best regards Zeno eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

changing file attributes
I'm receiving several hundred data files from from several states via CD-ROM. When these files are copied to my hard drive or network storage, the read-only attribute remains on the file. What I would like to do is have Perl to remove the read-only attribute for all of the files that I put in a certain folder (e.g., L:\Flu\StData\). If there is a better way or another program to do this, can someone direct me to the appropriate tool? Thanks, --- Jeremy T.

Re: changing file attributes
Jeremy,
You could try something like this:
my $Attributes = 32;
$path = L:\\Flu\\StData\\;
foreach $e ( $path\\*.* ) {
Win32::File::SetAttributes ($path, NORMAL);
}

File attributes
Does anyone know of a module that will retrieve extended attributes for file? I am looking for the last accessed date on a file, to produce of list of old files. I am sure that it can be done, I am just unaware of a module that does this already. Any help is appreciated.

RE: File attributes
You can use stat which produces 13 different characteristics about a file(one of them being the last access time).
