Modification Date of Folder


  • Subject: Modification Date of Folder

While this isn't a Applescript issue, it may have an Applescript solution.

Modifying a file does not set the modification date of its enclosing folder or the values returned by Applescript's modification date.

I tried doing a Finder Get Info command and that will correct the modification date that Applescript returns.

Is there a way to have the date updated prior to using "modification date" and without actually having Applescript do a Finder Get Info command?
