Hello,

I was wondering if it's possible to get the date created and date modified of files on an FTP server using FTP and put them into an array. Then I'd like to compare the date with date of the file(s) on the users PC, if the dates don't match, then list the files and allow them to download.

Currently, The first time a user tries for an update, I automatically download all the files, then add these dates to an ini file to compare later for future updates. I was hoping to modify this so the user doesn't have to download all the files the first time.

Thanks...
