Re: Need script to display file date created
Quote: Originally posted by GSmith
Hi.. I am new to ASP and scripting. I have a web page with links to several excel report files, and I would like to have the create date displayed for each file. Is there a basic script to obtain and display this information.
Thanks to all for any suggestions..... |
PHP Code:
Function Created()
Dim objFSO
Dim objFile
Dim dCreated
Dim FileName
FileName = Request.ServerVariables("Script_Name")
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.GetFile(Server.MapPath(FileName))
Created = objFile.DateCreated
'Created = FormatDateTime(dCreated, 1) & " at " & FormatDateTime(dCreated, 3)
Set objFile = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing
End Function
This should get you started. It's been working for me for years. This function is placed on a page to give the date create. (Actually used in meta tags/data)
The key is the path and filename. Map path won't work if you are referencing a file in another directory.
