Get "date" of file and add to html

[Soundlover4711]

Hi All!

I'd like to create a script which detects the date of a fiel (virus definition file) and add it to a line in a html file.

The goal is to have an html file, for example, with the line: virus definition: >date of file<

Have a little search in this forum (or the ASP forum - forum333) for FileSystemObject (or FSO). FSO will allow you to find out various file properties (including dates). It will also show you how to append that information into another file (including html files)

Thanks, if found a scrip. But now I have the problem that the name of the file is changed every day. In my script I have the following line to specify the filename:

filespec="\\myfileserver\VPHOME\file1.XDB"

How can I use just the file extension (.XDB)???

I tried filespec="\\myfileserver\VPHOME\*.XDB" but that doesn't work!

Have a look at the Files collection of the Folder object.

Hope This Helps, PH.
