File Not AccessedI want to be able to find out the names of files that havn't been accessed
in the past X days... so I want to do something like this.. date.today - txtlastdays.txt 9/08/2006 - 30 days = X is this possible? Not sure what you mean by 9/08/2006 - 30 days = X days.
It would be rather something like MaxAccessDate=Today.AddDays(-x) That will give the date that is x days earlier than today. You can then use this date to filter the files you want... See The fileInfo class if the problem is to get the last access date... -- Patrice "Gabe Matteson" <gmattesonATinqueryDOTbiz> a écrit dans le message de news: eMDRkk10GHA.3***@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...Show quoteHide quote >I want to be able to find out the names of files that havn't been accessed >in the past X days... > > so I want to do something like this.. > > date.today - txtlastdays.txt > > 9/08/2006 - 30 days = X > > is this possible? > Thanks!
It seems to add X to the days to todays date though, am i missing something? thanks!...

Query. IMO the problme is rather that you are using = instead of <= that is you'll have only files accessed exacltly x days ago. -- "Gabe Matteson" <gmattesonATinqueryDOTbiz> a écrit dans le message de news: uwW%23Mi40GHA.4***@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...Show quoteHide quote > Thanks! > It seems to add X to the days to todays date though, am i missing > something? thanks!... > > Dim QueryTime As date > > QueryTime = Today.AddDays(-txNotAccessed.Text) > > If sFile.LastAccessTime = QueryTime Then > > MsgBox(sFile) > > End If > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > "Patrice" <scr***@chez.com> wrote in message > news:%23qjyoz10GHA.1268@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... >> Not sure what you mean by 9/08/2006 - 30 days = X days. >> >> It would be rather something like >> >> MaxAccessDate=Today.AddDays(-x) >> >> That will give the date that is x days earlier than today.
