Ahh, it wasn't clear you wanted the create-time. In Unix (and any sufficiently Unix-like operating system) the "ctime" for a file is the last time there was a change to the file's inode and is generally portable. Not all Unixes keep track of the create-time for a file, so any mechanism to retrieve it is almost certainly non-portable. --=20 Shawn Halpenny
