Hi all,

excepted on using a LAN/WAN connection, copy (files / folders) from Windows to Mac OS X set the creation file as "1904-01-01, etc.".

In an attempt to change that I discovered that the AppleScript creation date property of item is read only.

But modification date is read/write (as I expected, but not needed as of today) !

Fortunately, after getting the error message, I went immediately checking the Finder dictionary (instead of wasting hours for nothing).

Someone knows why ?
Care to explain why ?
Do you know of any work-around ?


TIA,

Emile
