Returns the last modification Date or DateTime for a file.
FDATE(cFileName [, nType]) |
Parameters
- cFileName
- Specifies the name of the file whose last modification date FDATE(В ) returns. cFileName can include a path with the file name. If a path is not included with the file name, Visual FoxPro searches for the file in the default directory and in any directories or folders specified with SET PATH.
- nType
- Specifies that FDATE(В ) returns the last modification date or DateTime of the file specified with cFileName. If nType is 0, the last modification date is returned. Including 0 is identical to omitting nType. If nType is 1, the last modification DateTime is returned.
Return Value
Date
Remarks
The Date or DateTime value that FDATE(В ) returns is assigned to the file by the operating system.
Use LUPDATE(В ) to determine the last modification date for an open table.
Example
The following example uses FDATE(В ) to display the last modification DateTime for FoxUser.dbf, the Visual FoxPro resource file.
| В |  Copy Code |
|---|---|
? FDATE('FOXUSER.DBF', 1) && Displays the last modification DateTime | |
