I saved a couple of files in wordpad and had correct date. Created a new folder on the desktop and had correct date. Draged and dropped in a folder with another folder haveing the old date and the new folder changed date to the old date. What do I do next? "Pegasus [MVP]" wrote: > Hmm. Missing something here.
