ResDateTimeCreation is string
ResDateTimeModification is string
ResDateTimeAccess is string
FilePath is string
// Select a file
FilePath = "C:\MyDirectories\File.txt"
// Retrieve the file date information
ResDateTimeCreation = fDateTime(FilePath, "", fCreation)
ResDateTimeModification = fDateTime(FilePath, "", fModification)
ResDateTimeAccess fDateTime(FilePath, "", fAccess)
IF ResDateTimeCreation <> "" AND ResDateTimeModification <> "" AND ResDateTimeAccess <> "" THEN
// Display the different dates and times associated with a file
Info("The creation date and time are: " + ResDateTimeCreation + CR + ...
"The modification date and time are: " + ResDateTimeModification + CR + ...
"The access date and time are: "+ ResDateTimeAccess)
