Hi Nino, the list,

I do not know if this is related, but I get that with files stored on a Windows formatted MemoryStick, when I share a Windows volume, when I have a Windows created CD / DVD from Macintosh.

BTW: I do not saw that with Windows Personal Sharing volumes (I think). One thing is sure is there is an exception to the paragraph above rule :(

You want to get the modification date ? Ask for it, the bug appears only with the creation date.

Worst, if you make a search in the Finder - using Command-F - with created today (or something like that), you get these dates (they are looking like they are created in 2038 or 2048 - don't remember -)...

Fortunately, this bug like the tons of others will be removed in 10.5 (Apple told us that, isn't it ? The quality we deserve...)

Emile

Hi,
I've noticed that Creation Date on an SMB mounted volume are always 1/1/1904, or better this appears when showing files as list because in the file info window this value is "--" while accessing the same file from a windows shows correct creation date.


There is any alternative way in applescript to get this information, other then asking the finder for file creation date?

What I need to discover is if a file has changed since it was created.

Thanks in advance for any help
