Had a user who just noticed this. The "folder" dates
change from the original creation date to today's date
(the date of the copy) when copying the folder from the
server(server2k) to a laptop(Win2k). I've never noticed
it before.

Question: shouldn't the original folder date remain static
when copying. FYI: the files within the folder show the
original creation date...it's just the folder.

Any help, comments would be most helpful...thanks in
advance.

seems normal to me... don't know why its not consistent but thats the way it
has been for as long as i remember. on second thought i do know why, its
just an ms thing.

Hey thanks...ditto, I also tried the same folders on my PC
and got the same results....after all these years I've
never noticed it...I agree it's a BILL thing. Thanks for
confirmation. Have a great day!
