reading date a file was created/appended

[Eric Meyer]

I have been trying to make an application that will allow useage of the application for 30 days, then self-disable. So far, I have only been able to read date$ or use Dir$ or Attrib commands to get file names. However, I desire the latest date onto which a file was last created or updated, because I don't want users to defeat my software anti-piracy components. Please let know my options. Thanks very much, Eric Meyer.

A couple of samples included in PB/DOS should be very useful to you; i don' t have my PC here so i' m not sure about the names however if i remember correctely they should be DOSUNIT.BAS and maybe DATEUNIT.BAS .
