[DUG] Copying files problem

[John Bird]

If I use FileSetDate to set the date/time of the destination file, using the
value I got for the source file (calling eg FileAge) does it set the same
date/time if the source and destination file systems are different types (eg
FAT32/NTFS) ? 
 
Anyone know off the top of their head if this number is filesystem dependent
or not?

You could still use the FileStream technique and just touch the time stamps
as required using FileSetDate in SysUtils?

The main reason I wanted to use an API method (ie copying a file rather than
using FileStream etc to copy the data) is I want to preserve the date and
time filestamps on the files, as I do a smart copy - only copying files that
have a later modification date.
