Hi Kevin, There is an interesting thread on this at:- http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7792 George. From: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kevin Russell Sent: 25 November 2008 09:39 To: guispeak@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [guispeak] Retaining original creation date when copying files and folders Hi Does anybody know if there's a way of keeping the original file creation date when copying files and folders in Windows XP. If I use the Move command from the Edit menu in Windows Explorer, all original dates are kept, but the file is moved from the original location, which I don't want to happen. I want to carry out the same function in terms of retaining original dates using Copy. Any help gratefully received.
